Check out (issuing)
必須鍵入讀者的條碼或部份姓名，才能開始借出程序。可以從三個地方進入借出：
Check out option in the search bar at the top of the staff interface’s main page
Check out option in the search bar at the top of the main circulation page
Those two options are essentially a patron search. If you only have one result, Koha will automatically go to the patron’s file, in the 『Check out』 tab.
If your search gives you more than one result, it will ask you to choose which patron to check out to.
備註
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module, under the patrons tab (table id: memberresultst).
Clicking on a patron search result will bring you to the patron’s file, on the 『Details』 tab. Click the 『Check out』 tab to access the check out screen.
If you have enabled batch checkouts, click the batch check out tab on the patron record
Checking items out
以上述的選項之一搜尋讀者，開始借出館藏給讀者。接著將出現借出畫面。
If 『Always show checkouts immediately』 is checked, you will see the list of current checkouts below the check out box.
備註
The previousIssuesDefaultSortOrder system preference controls in which order these previous checkouts appear (earliest to latest, or latest to earliest).
備註
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module, under the circulation tab (table id: issues-table).
At the top of the check out screen is a field to type or scan the item’s barcode into.
備註
Many modern barcode scanners will send a 『return』 to the browser, making it so that the 『Check out』 button is automatically clicked.
若該館藏沒有條碼，系統將提示您以快速編目的方式，把條碼加入。參閱本手冊的 快速編目 章節。
If the itemBarcodeFallbackSearch system preference is set to 『Enable』, you can enter a keyword search in this box instead of just a barcode (this will make it possible to check out using title and/or call number).
If the AutoSwitchPatron system preference is set to 『Enable』, scanning a patron barcode here will take you to that patron’s file.
按下 『借出設定』 連結，就能夠擴展借出的其他設定選項。
Specify due date: this option can be used to override the default due date for the item, as defined in the circulation and fines rules.
備註
This option will only appear if the SpecifyDueDate system preference is set to allow staff to override the due date.
The red 『X』 is used to clear the date. If the 『specify due date』 field is empty, the default due date, as defined in the circulation and fines rules is used.
Remember for this session: check this box to use the same date for all checkouts. This will not only keep the specified due date for this patron but for all patrons, until you log out of the staff interface.
Automatic renewal: this option will allow this item to automatically be renewed
To use automatic renewals,
the automatic_renewals cron job must be running
the circulation and fines rules regarding automatic renewals must be defined
Just like regular renewals, the checkouts will not be automatically renewed if there is a hold on the item.
Don’t decrease checkout length based on holds: this option overrides the decreaseLoanHighHolds system preference.
備註
This option will only appear if the decreaseLoanHighHolds system preference is enabled.
On-site checkout: this option indicates that this checkout is an on-site checkout.
備註
This option will only appear if the checkout of items on site to patrons is allowed. These are usually items that are not for loan that you would like to check out for in-library use.
At the bottom of the page there is a summary of the patron’s current checked out items along with the due date (and time if the item is an hourly loan). Items checked out today will appear at the top, previously checked out items will be underneath.
備註
The todaysIssuesDefaultSortOrder system preference controls in which order these new checkouts appear (earliest to latest, or latest to earliest).
備註
以小時計的借出館藏可以納入以時計。
If an item is checked out for on-site use, that information will be highlighted in red in the checkout summary.
The 『Export』 button at the top of the table allows you to export the patron’s current checkouts in either Microsoft Excel or CSV format, or even copy or print their checkouts.
讀者紀錄的通知，顯示在借出盒的右方
If the patron has a hold waiting at the library, that too will appear to the right of the check out box making it easy for the circulation staff to see that there is another item to give to the patron.
The details of the checkouts will appear on the record detail page in the staff interface as well.
Printing receipts
把館藏借出後，有兩個方式可印出收條給讀者。
If you have the CircAutoPrintQuickSlip preference set to 『open a print quick slip window』 you can simply hit enter on your keyboard or scan a blank piece of paper with your barcode scanner. The idea being that you’re 「checking out」 a blank barcode which triggers Koha to print the 『Quick slip.』
If you have the DisplayClearScreenButton system preference set to 『Show print quick slip and clear buttons』 or 『Show print slip and clear buttons』, there will be a small printer button in the top right of the checkout box, which can be used to print the slip or quick slip.
可勾選螢幕上方的列印鈕並選擇 『列印收條』 或 『快速列印收條』。
若選擇 『列印收條』 將列印讀者借出的所有收條，包括稍早借出的內容。選擇 『快速列印收條』 則僅列印今天借出的館藏。
『列印摘要』 將產生全頁摘要的讀者流通資訊與 『列印逾期』 將列印所有逾期館藏的收條。
『Print checkin slip』 will print out a slip that lists items that were checked in today.
What prints on the slips can be customized by altering the slip templates under the Notices and slips tool.
Clear patron information
When you’re done checking an item out if you have the DisplayClearScreenButton preference set to 『Show』 you can clear the current patron by clicking the X in the top right of the patron’s info to remove the current patron from the screen and start over.
If you have the CircAutoPrintQuickSlip preference set to 『clear the screen』 then you simply need to hit enter or scan a blank barcode and the screen will be cleared of the current patron.
Batch checkouts
If you would like to perform a batch check out you can do so by turning on the BatchCheckouts system preference and assigning the proper patron categories via the BatchCheckoutsValidCategories system preference. This will allow you to use an RFID pad that reads multiple barcodes or perform a batch check out for training internal use.
From this screen you can scan several barcodes or load a file of barcodes.
If you have the SpecifyDueDate system preference enabled you will have the option to set a due date for the checkouts.
If the items cannot be checked out, a warning will be provided on the following screen, with the option to uncheck the items that are not to be checked out.
使用統計讀者類型則可看到被掃瞄館藏的館內使用情形。

續借
Checked out items can be renewed (checked out for another period of time) based on your circulation rules and renewal preferences.
若 允許續借，讀者可以經由 OPAC 續借它，但有時仍需要從館員介面續借。
可從以下兩件事，續借給讀者。
首先進入讀者詳情頁面或借出頁面並檢視下方的借出摘要。
In the Renew column you will see how many times each item has been renewed and a checkbox to renew the item for the patron. Check the box of the items you would like to renew and click the 『Renew or return checked items』 button, or to renew all items checked out to the patron simply click the 『Renew all』 button.
Sometimes renewals will be blocked based on your circulation rules, to override this block you must have your AllowRenewalLimitOverride preference set to 『Allow』. If you allow renewal limit overrides, you will see a checkbox at the bottom left of the circulation summary. Check that box and then choose the items you would like to renew.
按此盒將在續借欄新增勾選盒供續借館藏之用。
You can also mark a renewal as 『unseen』, to differentiate between renewals where staff has actually seen the item, versus renewals where they didn’t see it (over the phone, for example). To do this, you must first enable the UnseenRenewals system preference. Once enabled, a checkbox will appear at the bottom left of the circulation summary. Check that box to mark the renewals as 『unseen』. Then click either 『Renew or check in selected items』 or 『Renew all』.
第二個方法是進入流通選單下的 『續借』 頁面。
然後掃瞄館藏條碼就能續借該館藏。
續借館藏後讀者將收到確認訊息。
若找不到條碼將出現錯誤訊息。
實際上未借出館藏亦發出錯誤訊息予讀者。

Circulating bundles
This feature adds the ability to create bundles of items that can be checked out as a single entity. A bundle could for example be a box of related items from your library or a collection of musical scores which need to be circulated together.
You create a collection level bibliographic record and add items to it in the usual way. Those items can then be converted to a bundle by adding existing item records to them using their barcodes. The items will remain attached to their original records and be marked as ‘not for loan’.
Configuration
First you need to make some configuration choices.
Item types - you may want to create a separate item type to identify your bundles.
Circulation rules - you can optionally create circulation rules for your bundle item type.
There are two system preferences which control the status values used with bundles:
Creating bundles
The bundle functionality will only be displayed if you create a catalogue record with the Leader, (000 MARC tag) position 7 set to ‘c’ for Collection.
備註
It might be useful to have a separate MARC bibliographic framework for bundles with the ‘c’ set as a default value if you will use bundles regularly. You can also add any custom fields to the template that might be unique to bundles such as size or weight.
Your catalogue record will contain information to identify the content of the bundle.
For example, if the bundle is a box of resources for school children on the topic of oceans, the catalogue record might look something like the one shown below.
Add an item record for each physical bundle. It is likely that you will want a specific item type for bundles so that you can identify them easily and create circulation rules for them. In this case the bundle has the item type COLLECTION.
An item record attached to this type of catalogue record can be converted into a bundle via the Manage bundle button on the far right-hand side of the holdings table for each item as shown below.
Adding items to bundles
Click on Manage bundle and then the Add to bundle button to add items to the bundle using the barcode of the item.
You will see a message telling you that the item has been added successfully.
When you have finished scanning in items you can click on Close and view the bundle contents. The bundle contents list can be exported or printed if required.
警告
Items added to bundles are still attached to their permanent catalogue record, however, they cannot be checked out individually. When added to a bundle an item’s Not for Loan status is updated and can be viewed in the holdings table of the permanent record along with a link to the bundle. The Not for Loan status can be defined in the BundleNotLoanValue system preference.
If an item is already found to be attached to the bundle, a warning message will be displayed.
If an item cannot be added to the bundle for any other reason a failure message will display.
Removing items from bundles
To remove an individual item from a bundle you can click on the Remove button from the Actions column of the bundle contents list.
To remove multiple items from the bundle you have two options:
Use the ‘Remove from bundle’ button from within the Manage bundle display
Scan in barcodes in the same way as you add items to bundles. You will see a confirmation dialogue to let you know the item has been removed.
If the item couldn’t be removed you will see a Failure message.
The second way to remove multiple items is to scan the barcode of the item into the checkin box and you will be given the option to remove the item from its bundle.
When you have finished working with a bundle you can close the contents list by clicking on the Manage bundle button again.
Circulating bundles
Checkout
You can checkout a bundle in the usual way from Circulation using the barcode of the bundle. If required you can create specific circulation rules for bundles based on their item type.
Remember, once an item is within a bundle it cannot be checked out individually. If you try to do this the following alert will be displayed.
You can see the checkout from the patron’s list of checkouts.
You can also see that the bundle is checked out from the status column of the Holdings table of the catalogue record.from the catalogue record display.
Checkin
Check in bundles in the usual way from Circulation. You will then be prompted to verify the presence of each item that belongs in the bundle.
A list of the items currently attached to the bundle, and expected to be returned, will display at the top of the dialogue. Beneath the list will be a ‘Barcodes’ box where you are expected to scan the barcodes of the returned items one by one.
As you scan items, the matching row in the list will be highlighted to give some visual feedback. You also see a running total of items that have been checked in on the right hand side.
When you have finished scanning the returned items you can click on ‘Confirm checkin and mark missing items as lost’ or you can cancel the checkin.
If all the bundle items were marked as found you will be presented with a message to say the checkin is complete.
You can view and print a contents list.
Missing items
If some items were found to be missing during the verification stage the check in will proceed but you will be alerted to the fact that the bundle content has changed and you will be given the option to view and print an updated contents list.
You can also view a list of the missing items.
Any items that were missing during the verification stage will automatically be marked with an appropriate Lost status and a return claim added to track which checkout lost the contained item. You can add your own Lost statuses as authorized values and can control which lost status is used via the BundleLostValue system preference. For example a ‘Missing from bundle’ status as shown below.
In the Manage bundle contents view, the missing item displays with the date last seen.
Claims returned process
Within the patron record the missing items are listed as claims returned and can be viewed from the Claim(s) tab in the Checkouts table.
Click on the numbered square to view the missing items for the patron.
If an item is found it should be checked in. The checkin dialogue box will include a button to ‘Resolve’ the claim.
You are required to add a resolution reason and can optionally change the lost value of the item.
Inventory (checking bundle contents at any time)
A verification can be triggered at any time by checking the bundle in. If the system detects that the bundle was not checked out at this point, a modified confirmation dialogue is displayed which will include all items expected to be present in the bundle, even those currently marked as lost.
This allows for a quick view of what should be in the bundle and what’s currently marked as missing. You can optionally cancel the checkin or choose to rescan the items to perform the verification, marking items as found or subsequently missing. As this is a checkin that is not associated with a checkout, if new items are found to be missing, we will mark them as lost but cannot associate them with a checkout and returns claim.
預約
Koha allows patrons to put things on hold. A 『Hold』 is a way to reserve an item. Depending on your circulation and fines rules and hold system preference settings, patrons will be able to place items on hold for pickup at the library at a later date and time.
Placing holds in the staff interface
There are several ways to place holds from the staff interface. The most obvious is using the 『Place hold』 button at the top of any bibliographic record.
You can also click the smaller 『Place hold』 link found at the top of your catalog search results, or the 『Holds』 link found below each result.
To place holds on multiple titles at the same time, check the boxes next to the titles in the search results, and click the 『Place hold』 button at the top of the search results.
以讀者的條碼或名稱的任何部份搜尋讀者，進入預約程序。
If you’d like to search for the patron first and then the bibliographic record for the hold, you can open the patron record and click on the 『Search to Hold』 button at the top of the patron record.
After clicking the button you will be brought to the catalog search page where you can find the title or titles you need to place a hold on. Under each title on the results you’ll see an option to 『Place hold for (patron name).』
If you want to place a hold on multiple titles for this patron, check the boxes to the left of the titles, click the arrow to the right of the 『Place Hold』 button and choose 『Place hold for (patron name)』.
備註
Once the holds are placed, you can choose to have Koha 『forget』 the patron’s name by clicking the arrow to the right of the 『Place hold』 button on the search results and choosing the 『Forget (patron name)』 option.
依照同時選定的預約館藏數，您可以看見不同的預約表單。若在一個書目紀錄內預約，可看到所有預約的館藏。
Patron: the patron’s name for whom this hold is
Estimated priority: this takes into account holds that are already placed on this title
Note: enter any notes that might apply to this hold
Pickup at: choose the library where the patron will pick up the item
Request specific item type: if the AllowHoldItemTypeSelection system preference is set to 『Allow』 there will be an option to choose to limit the hold to a specific item type
Hold starts on date: if the AllowHoldDateInFuture system preference is set to 『Allow』, and the patron wants the hold to start on a date other than today, enter the date here
Hold expires on: if the patron has specified that they don’t want the item after a certain date, or if you have limits on hold lengths, you can enter an expiration date for the hold in the 『Hold expires on date』
備註
To cancel expired holds automatically you need to have the expired holds cron job set to run on a regular basis.
Hold next available item: check if the hold should on the next available item, if not, choose an item group in the 『Hold next available item from an item group』 section or a specific item in the 『Place hold on a specific item』 section below
Non-priority hold: if you are placing a hold for internal purposes, such as checking for missing pages or needing to add a label, check the 『Non-priority hold』 box. This type of hold will not prevent the patron who currently has the item to renew their checkout.
Hold next available item from an item group: if the EnableItemGroupHolds system preference is set to 『Enable』 and the record has item groups, you 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.
Place hold on a specific item: if the hold should be on a specific item rather than the next available item of the record or the group, select the item that should be placed on hold
備註
The default pickup library for item-level holds is determined by the DefaultHoldPickupLocation system preference.
If you’re placing holds on multiple records you will be presented with the next available option for all titles. If no items are available for hold it will say so on the confirmation screen.
If your library uses the patron clubs feature, use the clubs tab to place a hold for a club.
To place a hold for a club, click the clubs tab, search for and select the club name, and click the 『Place hold』 button.
Managing holds
Holds can be altered and cancelled from the holds tab found on the left of the bibliographic record.
From the list of holds you can change the order of the holds, the pickup location, suspend, or cancel the hold.
備註
If the HoldsSplitQueue system preference is set, you will see the holds list split across different tables by either pickup library, item type or both.
備註
If the AllowHoldDateInFuture system preference is set to 「Don’t allow」, you will not have the option to edit the date the hold was placed (the column labelled Date).
備註
Depending on how the HidePatronName system preference is set, the list may show card numbers instead of names in the patron column like in the image above.
Changing the order of the holds
To rearrange holds, make a selection from the 『Priority』 drop-down or click the arrows to the right of the priority pull down.
警告
Clicking the double down arrow to the right of the hold will stick the hold at the bottom of the list even if more requests are made.
For example, if your library has home-bound patrons that are allowed to keep items out for months at a time, it would not be fair to other patrons if a home-bound patron were able to check out a brand new book and keep it for months. For this reason, the home-bound patron’s hold request would stay at the bottom of the queue until everyone else who wanted to read that book has already done so.
In the list of existing holds, lowest priority holds are indicated by the double down arrow with a line underneath.
Clicking the double arrow again will put the hold back in regular priority, in last place.
Suspending holds
If a patron asks to have their hold suspended and the SuspendHoldsIntranet system preference is set to 『Allow』, you can do so by clicking the 『Suspend』 button at the far right.
If the patron gives you a date for the holds to resume, you can enter that in the date box and click the 『Update hold(s)』 button to save your changes.
備註
If the AutoResumeSuspendedHolds system preference is set to 「Don’t allow」 there will not be the option to put an end date on the hold suspension.
備註
The auto_unsuspend_holds.pl cron job is required to automatically resume suspended holds.
You can also unsuspend holds manually by clicking the 『Unsusped』 button.
If the SuspendHoldsOpac system preference is set to 『Allow』, patrons will be able to suspend and unsuspend their own holds from their online account.
Deleting holds
To delete or cancel a hold, click the red trash can to the right of the hold line.
To delete/cancel a bunch of holds you can choose 『del』 from the drop-down menu on the left of each line and then click 『Update hold(s)』 at the bottom of the list.
Receiving holds
When items that are on hold are checked in or out the system will remind the circulation staff that the item is on hold and offer them options for managing the hold.
還入被預約的館藏時，系統會要求館員確認該預約或轉移館藏
或僅確認預約
If the item needs to be transferred, clicking 『Confirm and transfer』 or 『Print slip, transfer, and confirm』 will mark the item as in transit to the proper library.
If the item is already at the pickup library, clicking the 『Confirm』 or the 『Print slip and confirm』 button will mark the item as ready for pickup by the patron.
Clicking 『Ignore』 will retain the hold, but allow the item to be checked out to another patron or change the status of the item (if it was returned damaged, for example).
The 『Print slip and confirm』 or 『Print slip, transfer, and confirm』 options will open a printable page that you can attach to the item with the necessary hold or transfer information.
備註
The slip that is printed is the HOLD_SLIP notice. It can be modified with the Notices and slips tool.
When the hold is confirmed, if the patron is notified, the 『hold filled』 notice will be sent to them.
備註
The notice that is sent is the HOLD notice. It can be modified with the Notices and slips tool.
備註
If the HoldsAutoFill system preference is enabled, the circulation staff will not have to confirm the hold, but they will have the option to print the hold or transfer slip.
If the HoldsAutoFillPrintSlip system preference is enabled, the print window to print the hold or transfer slip will open automatically.
Once confirmed, the hold will show as 『waiting』 on the patron record and on the checkout screen under the 『Holds』 tab.
此館藏紀錄將顯示該館藏已被預約。
In some cases, a patron may come in to pick up a hold on behalf of someone else. In this case, make sure that the hold is cancelled when you check the item out to someone else. Alternatively, a check out might be attempted in error for an item that is already waiting for someone else. In this case you will be presented with a warning message.
Cancel hold: in combination with 『Yes, check out』, this option will cancel the current hold and check the item out to the new patron.
Revert waiting status: in combination with 『Yes, check out』, this option will revert the waiting status of the hold (the patron who placed the hold will be back in first position in the queue) and check the item out to the new patron.
Yes, check out: this option will check the item out to the current patron.
Don’t check out and print slip: this option will open the print window to print the hold slip, the check out will be cancelled and the hold will remain.
No, don’t check out: this option will cancel the check out, the hold will remain.
If you try to check in an item that is already waiting to be picked up, a pop up indicating that a hold was found and the item is already waiting will appear.
Confirm hold: this option will keep the existing hold.
Print slip and confirm: this option will open the print window to print the hold slip and keep the existing hold.
Cancel hold: this option will remove the hold.
If you cancel the hold and further holds exist for the item you will be presented with a new option to confirm the hold for the next patron.
Curbside pickups
Koha has an integrated curbside pickup module that can be used to schedule hold pickups by patrons.
Get there: Circulation > Curbside pickups
See the curbside pickup configuration section to learn how to set up curbside pickup.
備註
Staff needs the manage_curbside_pickups permission (under circulate) in order to schedule and manage pickups.

Click the 『Schedule pickup』 tab
Search for the patron for whom to schedule a pickup, with either their name or their card number
警告
If 『Enable for waiting holds only』 is set in the curbside pickup configuration for your library, and the patron has no waiting holds, there will be an error message.
Enter a date for the pickup
備註
Only dates with available time slots will be displayed.
The possible pickup times will be displayed, depending on the day of the week
備註
The number in parentheses under each time slot is the number of patrons who are currently scheduled for a pickup at 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 displayed in red and you will not be able to select it.
If needed, you can add a note concerning this pickup
勾選 『送出』
Alternatively, you can schedule a pickup from the patron’s account.
Click 『Schedule pickup』 at the top of the patron’s detail page
Preparing for curbside pickups
Get there: Circulation > Curbside pickups > To be staged
The 『To be staged』 tab contains all the curbside pickups still waiting to be prepared.
備註
If the patron has overdues or restrictions, it will be shown here, under their name.
Once the items are prepared and ready to be picked up, click 『Mark as staged & ready』. This will transfer the scheduled pickup appointment in the 『Staged & ready』 tab.
備註
There is no need to checkout the item or items to the patron at this point. When delivering curbside pickups, the module will automatically check the items out.
Delivering curbside pickups
Get there: Circulation > Curbside pickups > Patron is outside
From the OPAC, the patron can alert that they are outside. Staff can also indicate that the patron has arrived by clicking on the 『Patron has arrived』 button from the 『Staged & ready』 tab.
At the designated time, meet the patron to give them their items. Then, click 『Mark as delivered』. This will check out the item or items to the patron and transfer the curbside pickup appointment to the 『Delivered today』 tab.
Cancelling curbside pickups
Get there: Circulation > Curbside pickups > To be staged
If, for any reason, you need to cancel a curbside pickup appointment, click the 『Cancel』 button from the 『To be staged』 tab.
If the appointment has already progressed beyond the 『To be staged』 status, click 『Mark as To be staged』 to bring it back there in order to cancel it.
Recalls
The recalls feature allows users to recall items that are currently checked out. Once the recall is confirmed, the borrower who currently has the item checked out will be notified that their due date has been adjusted and they need to return their item. Once recalled items are returned, the recall requester will be notified that their item is awaiting pickup at their specified pickup location.
See the requesting recalls section to learn how to place a recall in the OPAC.
Setting up recalls in Koha

Circulation reports
在報表模組可找到大部份的報表，但常用的流通報表可從流通模組右方找到。
到那裡： 流通 > 流通報表
Holds queue
This report will show you all holds waiting to be pulled off the shelf at your library.
說明
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: holds-table).
To generate this report, you must have the Build holds queue cron job running. This cron job is a script that should be run periodically if your library system allows borrowers to place on-shelf holds. This script decides which library should be responsible for fulfilling a given hold request.
It’s behavior is controlled by the system preferences StaticHoldsQueueWeight, RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight and UseTransportCostMatrix.
不讓所有圖書館參與館藏滿足預約計畫，應列出 *要* 參加該計畫圖書館的條碼，並以逗點區隔(如：」MPL,CPL,SPL,BML」 等)。
By default, the holds queue will be generated such that the system will first attempt to hold fulfillment using items already at the pickup library if possible. If there are no items available at the pickup library to fill a hold, build_holds_queue.pl will then use the list of libraries defined in StaticHoldsQueueWeight. If RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight is disabled (which it is by default), the script will assign fulfillment requests in the order the branches are placed in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight system preference.
For example, if your system has three libraries, of varying sizes ( small, medium and large) and you want the burden of holds fulfillment to be on larger libraries before smaller libraries, you would want StaticHoldsQueueWeight to look something like 「LRG,MED,SML」.
若期望各圖書館平均分擔預約的任務，應啟用RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight偏好，將隨機將預約分配給各圖書館。
An alternative to static and randomized is using the Tansport cost matrix. It takes precedence in controlling where holds are filled from and allows you to define the 『cost』 of transport between any two libraries. To use the Transport cost matrix simply set your UseTransportCostMatrix preference to 『Use』.
預約到館待提取
This report will show you all of the items that have holds on them that are available at the library for pulling. If the items are available at multiple libraries then all libraries with that item available will see the hold to pull until one library triggers the hold.
If enabled, clicking the Mark item as lost button will mark item as lost and notify the requesting patron depending on the value of the CanMarkHoldsToPullAsLost system preference.
說明
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: holds-to-pull).
You can choose which LOST value to set the item to with the UpdateItemWhenLostFromHoldList system preference.
使用此頁左方的篩選盒限制看到的結果：

此報表將列出所有預約到館待提取的館藏。
說明
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: holdst).
Items that have been on the hold shelf longer than you normally allow (based on the ReservesMaxPickUpDelay preference value) will appear on the 『Holds over』 tab, they will not automatically be cancelled unless you have set the cron job to do that for you, but you can cancel all holds using the button at the top of the list.
說明
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: holdso).
預約比率

此報表將列出所有轉移至您圖書館的館藏。
若轉移程序有拖延，將顯示拖延的時間。
重要
An item is considered late based on the number of days you have entered in the TransfersMaxDaysWarning system preference.
Article requests
Article requests are somewhat similar to holds, but are not requests for an item to check out. Instead, article requests are requests for a photocopy of a particular section of a book or an article from a serial issue. This is very common in academic libraries where researchers may request a copy of a single article found in a journal.
Setting up article requests
First, enable your system preference for ArticleRequests.
Set to 『Enable』 patrons to place article requests.
接著決定讀者請求論文的方式，記錄、館藏、或兩者兼顧。
You can set 3 different system preferences for mandatory fields to be filled in depending on how your records are requested.
ArticleRequestsMandatoryFields: make the following fields mandatory for records that are record level or item level requestable
ArticleRequestsMandatoryFieldsItemsOnly make the following fields mandatory for records that are only item level requestable
ArticleRequestsMandatoryFieldsRecordOnly make the following fields mandatory for records that are only record level requestable
The ArticleRequestsOpacHostRedirection system preference is used if you create analytical records. If enabled, it will redirect the patron from the child record to the host record in the OPAC.
The ArticleRequestsSupportedFormats system preference determines the various formats patrons can request their articles in (either photocopy or scan).
Next you will want to go into your circulation and fines rules matrix and select each rule for which you want to allow requests.
You can allow requests to be made at the record level, item level, yes (which means both) and no (which means no article requests may be placed).
You can also limit the number of open article requests a patron can have at one time by patron category in the Default open article requests limit section of the circulation rules page.
You can set up a fee for each article request in the Default article request fees section of the circulation rules page.
Placing article requests
接者可以從館員介面或 OPAC 提出請求。
In the staff client, on the record details page, you will see a 『Request article』 button at the top and an 『Article requests』 tab to the left. The two options lead to the same page.
Just like a hold, you will be prompted to enter the patron’s card number or name.
If there is a fee, a message will appear to inform the staff member.
Fill in the form.
備註
The mandatory fields are set through the three system preferences ArticleRequestsMandatoryFields, ArticleRequestsMandatoryFieldsItemsOnly, and ArticleRequestsMandatoryFieldsRecordOnly.
Title: enter the title of the requested article or chapter
Author: enter the author of the requested article or chapter
Volume: enter the volume in which this article or chapter is found
Issue: enter the issue in which this article is found
Date: enter the date of the issue in which this article is found
Table of contents: check to indicate the patron wants a copy of the table of contents
Pages: enter the pages to photocopy or scan
Chapters: enter the chapters to photocopy or scan
Patron notes: enter any relevant notes
Format: choose the format in which the patron wishes to receive this article or chapter
備註
The possible formats are defined in the ArticleRequestsSupportedFormats system preference.
Pickup library: choose the library at which the patron wishes to pick up their photocopy
If allowed, choose the specific item to request.
Then, click on 『Place request』.
From the OPAC, patrons can place requests themselves either from the results list
or by going to the detailed record.
As with a hold, if the patron is not logged in, they will be asked to do so.
The form is the same as the one in the staff interface.
If there is a fee, a message will appear to inform the patron.
If allowed, the patron can choose the specific item to request.
From their account, the patron will be able to follow the progress of their request from 『new』
to 『pending』, if necessary,
to 『processing』.
The patron will also receive an email notification when the status of the request changes.
Once the request is completed the patron will receive an email notification and the article request will no longer appear in their account.
Email notifications can be customized in notices and slips.
Managing article requests
提出論文請求後，可在館員介面首頁的下方看到該請求。(就是標籤、評論與修改的位置)。
館員可以選擇進入繼續執行的程序。
New requests are in the 『New』 tab.
The first step would be for a staff member to process the request, that moves the request to the processing tab and alerts other staff members that the request is in process. In the actions column, click on the dropdown menu and select 『Process request』. This will move the request to the processing tab.
If for any reason, a request cannot be processed right away (for example, if the title is currently checked out), the status can be changed to 『Pending』. This will send a notice to the patron indicating the request has been received and seen, but has yet to be processed.
然後，館員到書架取出該被請求的論文。
Once that is complete, staff can print the article request slip (this can be customized in notices and slips under AR_SLIP) and staple or paper clip it to the article. In the actions column, you can select the dropdown and select print slip.
最後，從行動下拉選單點選論文請求完成，等同告知讀者到館提取。
從處理分頁中自動移除該論文請求。
備註
Actions can also be made in bulk by checking the boxes next to the requests to process or by clicking 『Select all』, and choosing the new status from the actions menu on top of the table.
逾期
此報表將列出您圖書館所有的逾期館藏。
警告
對於讀者眾多的圖書館，此報表可能極為費時。
Large libraries can choose to filter the report before it runs by setting the FilterBeforeOverdueReport system preference to 『Require』.
備註
You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: circ-overdues).
以報表左方找到的選單選項可以篩選報表。
備註
按 『顯示目前借出的館藏』 盒，把逾期報表改為借出報表。將顯示所有的到期日的借出館藏。
The report result can be downloaded via the 『Download file of displayed overdues』 link or the 『Export』 button at the top of the table.
逾期罰款
此報表將列出被罰款的逾期館藏。
可使用上方的下拉式表單，限制表單的範圍為圖書館特定書架。改變您的圖書館 或登入其他圖書館，就能看到其他圖書館的逾期罰款。
重要
If you do not charge fines and/or don’t have the fines cron job running you will see no data on this report.
待決的現場借出
If you are using the on site checkouts functionality (OnSiteCheckouts) then you’ll have a report to view all items that are currently checked out on site.
此清單將列出到期日 (逾期則以紅色顯示)、借出者、館藏資訊與館藏所在地。
Tracking in-house use
很多圖書館追蹤館藏在館內的使用情況。
說明
This is different from tracking on-site usage. In-house use is the use of items in the library by patrons without them having to check them out. On-site use is the use of items on site that must first be checked out. To learn more about on site usage please review the OnSiteCheckouts preference.
Koha 以兩種方式取得館內使用的資訊。新增 統計館員 是其中一個選項。將移動過的館藏視為館內使用的館藏，借給統計館員：
Koha 不會記錄其為 『借出』 而把它們視館內使用：
對所有在館內使用的館藏重複此步驟，確保正確統計館內使用。
The other way to record local use of items is to set your RecordLocalUseOnReturn preference to 『Record.』 Then whenever you check an item in that is not checked out and not on hold a local use will be recorded.
說明
If you have RecordLocalUseOnReturn set to 『Record』 you can still use your statistical patrons to record local use as well.
Self checkout
Koha comes with a very basic self checkout module. To enable this module you need to set the WebBasedSelfCheck system preference to 『Enable.』 To use this module you have to log in as a staff member with self_check permissions.
說明
為自助借出模組新增一個專屬 館員 就可以了，不必以真的館員身份登入一整天
There is no link to the Self checkout module, but a simple addition to the OPACUserJS system preference can add one.
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#login .btn").parent().after("<p><a href=\"http://YOUR_KOHA_OPAC_URL/cgi-bin/koha/sco/sco-main.pl\" target=\"_blank\">Self-Checkout</a></p>");
});
**Important**
The code above has line breaks added to make it more readable,
please be sure to enter the above as one line in when putting it in
the system preference.
在登入頁面下方，該連結看起來是這樣：
You can also access this module by going to: http://YOUR_KOHA_OPAC_URL/cgi-bin/koha/sco/sco-main.pl
When on the self checkout page, depending on the value in your SelfCheckoutByLogin system preference you will be asked to enter your cardnumber
or your username and password
登入自助借出模組後，再要求掃瞄借出的館藏條碼
掃瞄館藏的條碼，將出現在條碼盒之下
所有欲借的館藏都掃瞄完畢，按下 『完成』 鈕。接著提示列印收條，再登出自助借出模組。
出現錯誤時，螢幕指示讀者回到櫃台辦理借出手續。即使允許凌駕流通功能，亦可能發生錯誤。祗有館員才能凌駕流通的鎖定，讀者必須回到櫃台，由館員辦理借出手續。
Self check-in
In order to use the self check-in module, you must first set the :ref: SelfCheckInModule <selfscheckinmodule-label> system preference to 『Enable』.
Then, you will have to create a patron with the self_checkin_module permission.
說明
Create a staff patron specifically for this action so that you don’t leave a real staff client logged into a computer all day. You can give this patron only the aforementioned permission so it cannot be used for anything else.
Once this is done, you can head over to the self check-in page: http://YOUR_KOHA_OPAC_URL/cgi-bin/koha/sci/sci-main.pl
Log in with your staff patron with self check-in permissions
Once the computer or kiosk is set and the self check-in user logged in, patrons will be able to check-in their items themselves.
The patron will either scan the item’s barcode, if the computer is attached to a barcode scanner, or type in their item’s barcode in the box and click 『Add』 or press enter.
說明
Most barcode scanners will automatically hit return after scanning.
Once they have scanned or entered all their items』 barcodes, they can click on the 『Check-in』 button to return all the items at once.
重要
If the patron doesn’t click the 『Check-in』 button, the items will not be returned and will stay in their account.
重要
The self check-in module will not warn user if the item is late, if they have fines, if the item is on hold for someone else, or if they have messages in their account.
They can then click 『Finish』 to return to the main self check-in page.
說明
If the patron doesn’t click 『Finish』, the screen will refresh after the timeout period specified in the SelfCheckInTimeout system preference.
說明
Even if the patron doesn’t click 『Finish』 the item will still be checked in from their account.
You can customize the look of your self check-in screens by using the SelfCheckInUserCSS system preference or the SelfCheckInUserJS system preference.
You can add content, like instructions on how to use the self check-in system for example, by using the SelfCheckInMainUserBlock system preference.
Statistics about the transactions made through the self check-in module are logged into the action_logs table in the Koha database. You can therefore build a custom report to get the statistics you need.

Branch code = the code for the branch where you are located
Commit Type = If you select ‘Send data to Koha’, your account will need to be approved by an administrator. If you select ‘Apply directly to Koha’, your account will not need to be approved.
重要
必須關閉外掛視窗，再按附加欄的 Koha 商標重新開啟外掛，就能儲存這些設定。
說明
可新增一個館員帳號，專門做離線流通的工作。不論誰輪值流通工作，都以同個帳號登入。在這個情況下，可以使用已經擔任流通的群組登入。
設定完成後，就可以開始借出與還入作業。
借出：
Under the 『Checkout』 heading
掃瞄讀者條碼
掃瞄館藏條碼
Click 『Checkout』
還入：
Under the 『Checkin』 heading
掃瞄館藏條碼
Click 『Checkin』
Each time, you check out or check in an item, a new transaction is recorded in the local plugin database. This is recorded in the Transactions section bellow.
說明
維持在離線且未把交易納入 Koha，其狀態就是 「在地」。
恢復連線後，應立即將交易資料上傳至 Koha。在此之前，還有幾點事項該注意。
Because you are not connected to your Koha database when using this plugin holds will need additional processing. If an item you check in while offline has a hold, the hold is kept on the item. Since, you can’t confirm holds found during the processing of every check in, the holds stay on the item and will need to be managed later. If you only checked in a few items you can just keep a record of them all. If you checked in a lot of items you can use the Holds queue once it rebuilds to see what holds made it to the shelf erroneously.
同樣的，若讀者證過期，離線流通工具不會知道它，仍可借出給被停權的讀者。
有兩個選項處理這些資料
Apply to Koha
If you checked in/out on more than one computer at the same time, what you want is to process every transaction consistently. Let’s say for instance that one patron checked a book out on one computer and then checked the same book in on another computer. To be consistent, you need to record the check out first and then the check in. Not the opposite! To do so, you need to group every transaction in one place, sort them all and then, process everything. So, you need to use the 「Apply to Koha」 option from every plugin/computer you worked with. This way, the log will go to Koha and be accessible from the Offline Circulation page.
