Results overview
After performing a search, the number of results found for the search will appear above the results.
By default, the search results are sorted based on the OPACdefaultSortField and OPACdefaultSortOrder system preference values. To change the sort order of these results, you can choose another sorting method from the drop-down menu on the right.
Under each title in the results list, there will be a series of values from the record’s leader (field 000).
Note
These values have nothing to do with the item types or collection codes you have applied to your records or items. This data is all pulled from the record’s control fields.
This can be turned on or off with the DisplayOPACiconsXSLT system preference.
Below each title, there will be the availability for the items attached to the record.
Note
Even if you filtered on one library location, all locations that hold the item will appear on the search results.
Avertissement
An item’s hold status does not affect whether or not the item is “available” until the item is in “waiting” status. Items with on-shelf holds will show as available until a staff member has pulled them from the shelf and checked the item in make it show “waiting”.
If any enhanced content system preferences are turned on, there may be cover images next to the search results.
If Did you mean? options are set, there will be a yellow bar across the top of your results will other related searches.

Lists and the cart
A cart is a temporary holding place for records you’re interested in finding during this session. That means that once you log out of the OPAC or close the browser you lose the items in your cart. A list is a more permanent location for saving items. To learn more about lists, check the Lists in the staff client chapter of this manual.
Listes
Patrons can manage their own private lists by visiting the “your lists” section of their account.

Lists can also be created by choosing the “New list” option in the “Add to” menu on the search results
To create a list the patron simply needs to click the “New list” link and populate the form that appears

A private list is managed by you and can be seen only by you (depending on your permissions settings below)
A public list can be seen by everybody, but managed only by you (depending on your permissions settings below)
Important
If you aren’t allowing patrons to create public lists with the OpacAllowPublicListCreation preference then patrons will only be able to create private lists.

Si vous souhaitez voir plus d’options, cliquez sur “Afficher plus d’options”
Place hold form with more options
If you have the AllowHoldItemTypeSelection preference set to “Allow” and the record had more than one item type attached you will see an option to choose to limit the hold to a specific item type
If allowed by your OPACAllowHoldDateInFuture preference, the “Hold starts on date” column will show. This field allows the patron to have their hold start on a future date.
By default holds placed in the system remain until canceled, but if the patron fills in a “Hold not needed after” date then the hold has an expiration date.
Important
Expired holds are removed by the expired holds cron job, this is not an automatic process and must be set up by your system administrator
If allowed by the OpacHoldNotes preference then patrons can leave notes about their holds for the library by clicking the “Edit notes” button
Image
If the EnableItemGroupHolds system preference is set to “Enable” and the record has item groups, the patron can choose to place a hold on the next available item of a group, rather than the next available item on the whole record or a specific item.
Depending on the rules you set regarding item specific holds in your circulation and fines rules the patron will be allowed to choose whether to place the hold on the next available copy and/or a specific copy.
After clicking the “Place hold” button the patron will be brought to their account page where they’ll see all of the items they have on hold.
Requesting recalls
If your library accepts recalls (see setting up recalls for more information), patrons will be able to place recalls on items.
The option to request a recall appears in various places in the OPAC:
In the results list after a search, the “Place recall” option appears at the bottom of each recallable result.
In the detailed record. the “Place recall” option appears on the right side of the screen (or bottom in mobile view) in the options
Either of those links will lead to the recall form.
Pick up location: the patron can choose where they’d like to pick up their recalled item.
Recall not needed after: if the patron not need this item after a certain date, they can enter it here. The recall will be automatically expired (with the expire_recalls.pl cronjob) after that date.
Recall next available item or Recall a specific item: the patron can choose to recall any item or a specific one. If they choose “Recall a specific item”, they will be asked to select the item in the list.
Once the patron confirms their recall request, they will have get a message saying the the patron who currently has the item will be notified. The request will be added to the recalls tab in their account summary, as well as in their recall history list.
Enhanced content
Taguer (mots-clés)
Depending on your settings for the TagsEnabled, TagsInputOnList and TagsInputOnDetail preferences you may be able to add tags to bibliographic records from the search results and/or bibliographic records. If you are allowing patrons to add tags from the search results screen you will see an input box below each result and a “Tag” option at the top of the screen.
Pour ajouter un tag à un titre, saisissez les tags (mots-clés) (séparés par des virgules) dans la barre de saisie “Nouveau tag”, et cliquez sur “Ajouter”. Un message de confirmation s’affichera.
A partir des résultats, il est possible de taguer des titres par groupe en cochant les cases sur la gauche et en cliquant sur le bouton “Tag”. Une barre de saisie apparaîtra pour que vous ajoutiez des tags à tous les titres que vous avez sélectionnés.

Sélectionnez les titres que voulez ajouter à Zotero et cliquez sur le bouton “OK”. Vous pourrez voir les titres ajoutés dans votre bibliothèque Zotero.
Custom RSS feeds
Using the RSS feeds cron job you can generate an RSS feed for any SQL query (for example a new acquisitions RSS feed). The cron job is run on the command line to produce an RSS XML document.
Le résultat pourra être classé dans un répertoire accessible depuis OPAC (ou l’intranet) afin que les utilisateurs puissent télécharger le flux RSS.
Un exemple d’utilisation peut être trouvé à: misc/cronjobs/rss.pl lastAcquired.conf
Normally the RSS cron job should be run periodically (e.g., daily) to keep the feed up-to-date.
Les listes du fichier de configuration (par exemple lastAcquired.conf) inclut:
nom du fichier modèle à utiliser
chemin du fichier exporté
Requête SQL
The RSS cron job runs the SQL query, then feeds the output of the query through the template to produce the output file.
Important
To use custom RSS feeds you need to turn on the RSS cron job.
OPAC self registration
If you allow it, patrons can register for their own accounts via the OPAC. If you have the PatronSelfRegistration preference set to “Allow” then patrons will see a link to register below the log in box on the right of the main OPAC page.
When the patron clicks the “Register here” link they will be brought to a registration page. The options on the registration page can be controlled by editing the PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerMandatoryField and the PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerUnwantedField preferences.
Once the patron has confirmed submitted their registration they will either be sent an email to confirm their account (if you have the PatronSelfRegistrationVerifyByEmail preference to require this) or presented with their new username and password. If the PatronSelfRegistrationPrefillForm system preference is set to “Show and prefill”, they will be presented with the prefilled login form.
Les adhérents qui s’inscrivent de cette façon n’auront pas de numéro de carte jusqu’à ce que la bibliothèque leur en assigne un, mais ils auront accès immédiatement à l’OPAC. Pour cette raison, il est conseillé de:
set up a provisional patron category for self registered patrons (such as “Self Registered) instead of using an existing patron category and set that value in the PatronSelfRegistrationDefaultCategory preference
give this patron category minimal circulation privileges in the circulation and fines rules (such as allowing a couple holds, but no check outs)
Les adhérents peuvent soit se présenter à la bibliothèque pour une vérification de leur identité avant de recevoir un numéro de carte qui leur permettra d’emprunter des documents; soit la bibliothèque conçoit des numéros de cartes à partir des règles internes, et les fournit aux adhérents auto-inscrits. La bibliothèque peut alors changer la catégorie d’adhérent en une plus appropriée (adulte, résident, non-résident, étudiant etc…) et ajouter un numéro de carte/code à barres.
Your account
If the opacuserlogin system preference is set to “Allow”, patrons can log in and access their account.

If they choose ‘Yes’, items for which automatic renewal is enabled in the circulation rules will renew as expected. If they choose ‘No’, the automatic renewals that would have applied to this patron’s checkouts will not take place.
If you have HTML entered in the OPACMySummaryHTML preference then you will see that to the right of the “Fines” column.
If your patrons would like to see the items barcodes on their list of checked out items you can set up a patron attribute with the value of SHOW_BCODE and authorized value of YES_NO.

Your recalls history
If your library allows recalls, the patron can see all their past and current recalls they have requested and their various statuses in the “your recalls history” tab.
The patron can cancel a recall by clicking the “Cancel” button, provided that it is not already awaiting pickup.
Curbside pickups
If your library offers curbside pickup, the patron will be able to see their scheduled pickups under “Curbside pickups”.
The patron has the option to indicate that they are outside the library by clicking “Alert staff of your arrival”.
The patron also has the option to cancel their scheduled pickup with the “Cancel this pickup” button.
If the “Patron-scheduled pickup” setting is turned on in the curbside pickup configuration, the patron will be able to schedule their own curbside pickup appointment.
The patron must first choose a library at which they want to pick up their items
Note
Only libraries with curbside pickup enabled will be displayed in the drop-down menu.
Furthermore, if the “Enable for waiting holds only” setting is turned on, only the libraries at which the patron has waiting holds will be enabled.
The patron must then choose a date
Note
Only dates with available time slots will be displayed.
The possible pickup times will be displayed, depending on the day of the week
Note
The number in parentheses under each time slot is the number of available appointments for that time. If the maximum number of appointments has been reached, based on the “Maximum patrons per interval” setting in the curbside pickup configuration, the time slot will be greyed out and the patron will not be able to select it.
The patron can optionally add a note about their pickup
The patron must then click “Schedule pickup” to save their appointment
Purchase suggestions
If your library has the suggestion preference set to “Allow”, patrons will have the option to make purchase suggestions in several areas in the OPAC.
If you are allowing everyone to see the purchase suggestions made by others with the OPACViewOthersSuggestions preference, there will be a link at the top of your OPAC under the search box.
Un lien s’affichera pour suggérer un achat si l’adhérent ne trouve rien pour sa recherche.
There will be a “Suggest for purchase” option in the detailed view of a bibliographic record.
And there will be a link in the Your purchase suggestions tab in the patron’s account.
Cliquez sur l’un de ces liens pour ouvrir le formulaire de la suggestion d’achat.
The informational text at the top of the form can be replaced using the HTML customizations tool, display location OpacSuggestionInstructions.
From the form only the “Title” is required by default.
Mandatory fields can be set using the OPACSuggestionMandatoryFields system preference.
The OPACSuggestionUnwantedFields system preference can be used to hide unnecessary fields.
The item type list can be edited by editing the SUGGEST_FORMAT authorized value list.
The “Reason for suggestion” list can be edited by editing the OPAC_SUG authorized value list.
You can change the text at the top of the form using the HTML customizations tool
Once the form is submitted the purchase suggestion will appear in the acquisitions module for the librarians to manage.
If a purchase suggestion has been ordered through the acquisitions module, the patron’s purchase suggestion title will be clickable and bring the patron directly to the ordered record in the OPAC.
Libraries
The “Libraries” page shows the contact information (address lines, city, state, zip/postal code, country, phone number, fax number, website) for libraries in the system that are set as “Public”.
The library name is a link to a specific page for this library. This second page also includes “OpacLibraryInfo” HTML customizations for this library.
Commentaires
Patrons can leave comments in the OPAC if you have the OPACComments preference set to allow this. Each bibliographic record has a comments tab below the bibliographic information.
Si l’adhérent est connecté sur l’OPAC, il verra un lien pour ajouter un commentaire sur un document. En cliquant dessus cela ouvrira une fenêtre avec un cadre de saisie.
Une fois le commentaire rédigé, cliquez sur le bouton “Valider”. L’adhérent verra son commentaire en attente, et les autres adhérents verront qu’il n’y a aucun commentaire sur le document.
Once the comment is approved the patron will see the number of comments on the “Comments” tab and their comment labeled amongst the other comments. If the ShowReviewerPhoto system preference is set to “Show”, the patron’s photo pulled from the Libravatar library will be displayed next to their comment.
Other patrons will see the comment with the name of the patron who left the comment (unless you have set the ShowReviewer preference to not show patron names).
If you have your OpacShowRecentComments set to show then you’ll see the approved comments on that page.
Depuis cette page, les adhérents peuvent s’abonner aux commentaires récents utilisant le RSS s’ils le souhaitent.
