Reservation Settings

When managing reservations, there are a number of configurable settings that will allow you to tweak them to your liking. 

Log into your library system as an administrator user and load Management. Select 'Settings' on the menu bar at the top of the page and then select 'Reservations...' from the list.

'Delete reservations older than' allows you to specify the time frame that reservations are kept for. If a borrower makes a reservation then doesn't come to collect the resource, once the specified length of time has passed, the reservation will be automatically deleted. 

If you tick 'Stop reservation for on shelf resources', then only resources that are currently on loan will be able to be reserved, anything that is in the library and available, cannot be reserved. Having it unticked would allow borrowers to reserve resources from home then collect it the next time they are at the library. 

The next option, when ticked, will automatically print a reservation slip for a resource when it has been returned, even if you have already manually generated one previously. 

Ticking the final option will allow reservation slips to be automatically emailed to borrowers when the resource is returned, providing there is an email address associated with their account. 

At the bottom of the settings box is the options for customising the reservation slips. You can type anything you like into this box, this will then show on the borrower side of the reservation slip. Should you wish to revert back to the default reservation slip provided by us, this can be done by pressing the button at the bottom. 

When you are happy with your settings, press 'OK' to save the changes and close the box.
