3 <h1>Patrons (anonymize, bulk-delete)</h1>
5 <p>This tool allows you to bulk anonymize circulation histories (this means that you keep records of how many times items were checked out - but not the patrons who checked the items out) or bulk delete patrons (remove them from the system completely).</p>
7 <p style="color: #990000;">Important: Patrons with outstanding fines or items checked out are not saved. They are not completely removed from the system (moved to the delete_borrowers table), but this tool does not provide as many checks as one may desire.</p
9 <p>To either delete or anonymize patrons</p>
12 <li>Check the task you would like to perform (Delete or Anonymize)</li>
13 <li>Enter a date before which you want to alter the data</li>
15 <li>A confirmation will appear asking if you're sure this is what you want to happen</li>
16 <li>Clicking 'Finish' will delete or anonymize your data</li>
