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).

ملاحظة

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.

ملاحظة

Even if you filtered on one library location, all locations that hold the item will appear on the search results.

تحذير

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.

The results show the headings, the type of heading, and the number of bibliographic records this authority record is used in.

If the authority record contains notes, a 'Notes' link will appear under the heading.

Clicking on 'Details' will show the complete record.

Clicking on the number of records will do a catalog search for records linked to this authority record.

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 and cart chapter of this manual, which deal with these features in the staff interface.

Click 'Show more options' to show additional settings for this hold.

• Hold starts on date: if the OPACAllowHoldDateInFuture system preference is enabled, this field will be displayed and it allows the patron to have their hold start on a future date.

• Hold not needed after: by default, holds placed in the system remain until canceled, but if the patron fills in this field, the hold will have an expiration date.

  مهم

  Expired holds are removed by the cancel_expired_holds.pl cronjob. This is not an automatic process and must be set up by the system administrator.

• Request specific item type: if the AllowHoldItemTypeSelection system preference is set to 'Allow', this option will be displayed for the patron to choose to limit the hold to a specific item type.

• Request specific item group: 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.

• Hold notes: if the OpacHoldNotes system preference is enabled, patrons will be able to leave notes about their holds for the library.

• Depending on the circulation rules regarding item-specific holds, the patron will be allowed to choose whether to place the hold on the next available item or a specific item.

  

After clicking the 'Confirm 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.

ملاحظة

The notice sent to the patron who currently has the item is RETURN_RECALLED_ITEM. It can be edited in the Notices and slips tool.

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.

The output should be placed in a directory accessible to the OPAC (or staff) web interface so that users can download the RSS feed.

ويمكن الاطلاع على مثال للأستخدام في: 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.

ملف التكوين القوائم (على سبيل المثال، lastAcquired.conf)

• اسم ملف القالب لأستخدام

• مسار ملف الإخراج

• الاستعلام SQL

The RSS cron job runs the SQL query, then feeds the output of the query through the template to produce the output file.

هام

To use custom RSS feeds you need to turn on the RSS cron job.

Cookies information

You can add information about cookies to your OPAC, with a banner and policy.

From the cookie banner, users have the option to accept essential cookies or to view more information. When they click 'More information', the Cookies policy pops up.

The cookie banner will be displayed on all pages until the user accepts cookies.

To set up cookie information:

• Check whether you use non-essential cookies on your site.

  • Check for analytics tracking code in the OpacUserJS system preference.

• Move any tracking code you have to the CookieConsentedJS system preference.

• Decide what text you want displayed on the cookie banner: add it to the CookieConsentBar HTML customization.

• Decide what content you want for the Cookies policy pop-up: add it to the CookieConsentPopup HTML customization.

• Switch the CookieConsent system preference to 'Require' and check the result.

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.

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 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.

You can add additional instructions on this page by creating an HTML customization with the display location 'PatronSelfRegistrationAdditionalInstructions'.

To be notified when a patron registers via the OPAC, use the EmailPatronRegistrations system preference.

Patrons registered in this way will not have a cardnumber until assigned one by the library, but will have access to all OPAC functionality immediately. For this reason it is recommended that you:

• 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)

That way patrons will either have to come in to the library to verify their identity before given a cardnumber and the ability to check items out or the library will have to come up with internal policy on generating cardnumbers before providing them to self registered patrons. Once this is done the library can change the category to one that is more appropriate (be it an adult, resident, non resident, student, etc) and add a cardnumber/barcode.

حسابك

If the opacuserlogin system preference is set to 'Allow', patrons can log in and access their account.

Once logged in patrons are brought to their account summary.

If patrons access the home page while logged in, and OPACUserSummary is set to 'Show', they will see a small summary of their account instead of the login fields.

If OPACShowSavings is set to display savings in the summary box, this summary section will also contain the savings the patron made by using the library rather than purchasing the items.

From any page on the OPAC, clicking on their name at the top right of the page will bring a patron back to their account.

إعادة تعيين كلمة المرور الخاصة بك

If you have the OpacResetPassword system preference set to 'Allow', patrons can reset their password by clicking the 'Forgot your password?' link found under the login box.

Once clicked, they will be presented with a form asking for their username and their email address.

تحذير

Patrons must have an email address on file to reset their password. If they don't have an email address already in their file, they will get an error message

The system will then email the patron instructions for resetting their password.

The content of the email can be customized with the Notices and slips tool. The code of the letter is PASSWORD_RESET.

If the NotifyPasswordChange system preference is enabled, the patron will receive a notification indicating their password was changed.

The content of that email can be customized with the Notices and slips tool. The code of the letter is PASSWORD_CHANGE.

ملخصك

From the 'your summary' tab, patrons will see all of the items they have checked out with the overdue items highlighted in red.

OPAC messages and OPAC notes will be displayed at the top of this page. For OPAC messages, the patron will have the option to dismiss the message. This will hide the message from their OPAC account and mark it as read, but it will not delete the message.

You can add content to this page with the OpacMySummaryNote HTML customization location. Content added there will appear above the patron's summary and below the welcome message.

If OPACShowSavings is set to display savings in the 'your summary' page, this section will also contain the savings the patron made by using the library rather than purchasing the items.

If OpacRenewalAllowed set to 'Allow', patrons will be able to renew their checkouts from the OPAC.

If the patron has pending charges exceeding the value set in OPACFineNoRenewals, a note will display explaining that renewals cannot be made.

A note will display if the patron cannot place holds due to their charges exceeding the value set in the maxoutstanding system preference.

If AllowPatronToControlAutoRenewal is set to 'Allow patrons', patrons will be able to choose whether or not they want their checkouts to be renewed automatically. 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.

نصيحة

By default, the barcode is not displayed in the patron's checkout table on the OPAC. 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.

Then, on the patron's record set the value for SHOW_BCODE to 'Yes'.

This will add a column to the checkout summary in the OPAC that shows the patron the barcodes of the items they have checked out.

If you would like your patrons to leave a note on an item they have checked out AllowCheckoutNotes preference must be set to allow.

In the patron's summary of checkouts, there will be an added column to allow the patron to leave a note (for example: missing first page, or DVD is scratched).

OPAC self checkout

Version

This feature was added in Koha version 23.11.

In addition to the self checkout module, there is a lighter weight option for libraries with smaller, trusted communities. With this option, patrons are allowed to check out items to themselves through their OPAC account with no oversight from library staff. This self checkout feature can be used on any computer or device with access to the OPAC, as opposed to the self checkout module which is meant to be used on dedicated computers.

Once the OpacTrustedCheckout system preference is enabled, logged in patrons will see a 'Self checkout' option at the top of the page in the OPAC.

Clicking on the 'Self checkout' link will open a pop-up where the patron can enter the item's barcode and click 'Submit' or press the enter key.

Once the item's barcode has been entered, a confirmation message appears at the top of the pop-up and the item's barcode, title, call number and due date are listed at the bottom. The patron has the option to scan or enter another barcode.

To renew the checkout, the patron only has to check out again (or renew from their summary).

If an item is already checked out to another patron, a message will say so.

Checkout will also be blocked if:

• the barcode is not found;

• the item is on hold for another patron;

• the patron's outstanding charges are over the limit;

• the patron already has the maximum amount of checkouts;

• the patron does not have the required age to checkout the item;

• the item cannot be checked out because of a not for loan or withdrawn status.
