Searching CIRC control Patron records can be located by phone number, barcode, first name or last name. If more than one hit is found, a list of alternatives is provided. Messages are locally configured. Different loan periods can be set for item and patron categories. Holds can be set and renewals made.
Patrons can ask for an immediate printout of their current transactions, fines, overdues, etc.
From the patron's record, fines can be paid and receipts issued. Circulation Statistics A summary screen keeps track of loans per day, previous day, past month, past year and total to date. All transactions are logged, and the log can be sent to a printer one transaction at a time. The Inventory can be taken in call number ranges, so that it can take place over a considerable period of time. The inventory functions are integrated with CIRC control, so the system knows when an item is not inventoried because it is in circulation.
