    • “Allow auto-renewal of items” is used to control whether this patron’s checkouts will be renewed according to the circulation rules. If set to ‘Yes’, items for which automatic renewal is enabled in the circulation rules will be automatically renewed. This requires the automatic_renewal cronjob to run daily. If set to ‘No’, items for which automatic renewal is enabled in the circulation rules will not be automatically renewed.

    • Protected: protected patrons cannot be deleted either manually or by batch. Use this for system patrons such as statistical patrons, SIP2 patrons, the self checkout user, or superadmins.

      Version

      The “Protected” option was added in version 23.11 of Koha.

    • “Vérifier les prêts précédents” permet de vérifier l’historique de prêt de l’adhérent, pour voir s’il a emprunté ce document précédemment. Cette fonction outrepasse le réglage dans les catégories d’adhérents et celui de la préférence système CheckPrevCheckout.

'Duplicate patron record' warning with options to view existing patron record, to edit existing record or to save as new record

Note

Consultez la préférence système PatronDuplicateMatchingAddFIelds pour consulter ou changer quels champs sont utilisés pour détecter des doublons d’adhérents. Par défaut, il y a le nom, le prénom et la date de naissance.

Si vous avez défini un âge minimum ou maximum dans la catégorie des adhérents où la date de naissance doit être saisie, Koha vous avertira que l’adhérent que vous êtes en train d’ajouter est trop vieux ou trop jeune pour la catégorie d’adhérents que vous avez sélectionnée:

Warning 'The following fields are wrong. Please fix them. Patron's age is incorrect for their category. Ages allowed are 5-17.'

If the patron’s category has an enrollment fee, the fee will be charged to the patron’s account when the account is created. You can then manage the charge in the patron’s accounting tab.

Ajouter rapidement un nouvel utilisateur

Si votre banque de prêt est en surcharge et que vous souhaitez inscrire rapidement un adhérent, vous pouvez utiliser la fonction  » ajout rapide « . Il s’agit d’une version abrégée du formulaire d’ajout d’adhérent avec seulement quelques champs nécessaires à remplir.

Cette fonctionnalité utilise deux préférences système : BorrowerMandatoryField et PatronQuickAddFields. Ce sont les deux préférences système qui déterminent les champs du formulaire d’ajout rapide.

Pour ajouter rapidement un utilisateur, aller dans le module Utilisateur.

  • Aller à: Utilisateurs

Une fois ici, cliquer sur le bouton “Ajouter rapidement un nouvel utilisateur”.

You will be asked to choose a patron category.

Then, you will be presented with a shortened form.

Add patron

Once the form is filled out, click on “Save”.

If you need to access the full form, you can click on “Show full form” above the “Save” button.

Ajout d’un adhérent Bibliothécaire

Le personnel de la bibliothèque doit être enregistré dans Koha en tant qu’adhérent de type “Bibliothécaire”. Suivez les instructions de la section “Ajouter un adhérent <add-a-new-patron-label>”. Vous leur donnez ensuite accès au logiciel en cliquant sur le bouton Plus > “Permissions <patron-permissions-label>”

Important

Pensez bien à donner aux professionnels un identifiant et un mot de passe sûrs.

Ajout d’un adhérent de type statistique

Une façon de garder une trace des documents consultés à la bibliothèque est de les passer en prêt sur la carte d’un adhérent de type Statistique. L’enregistrement des prêts n’enregistre alors aucun prêt, il enregistre juste l’utilisation des documents dans la bibliothèque. Pour utiliser cette méthode, il faudra d’abord paramétrer dans les catégories d’adhérents une catégorie Statistique.

image420

Ensuite, vous devez créer un compte adhérent de type statistique.

Add statistical patron

Next, follow the steps put forth in the “Add a new patron” section of this manual. Since this patron is not a real person, simply fill in the required fields, the correct library and nothing else.

Découvrez les autres méthodes de statistiques de consultation sur place dans la section Suivi des consultations sur place du manuel.

Dupliquer un adhérent

Parfois, lorsque vous ajouter une nouvelle famille dans votre système, vous ne voulez pas taper encore et encore les informations de contact. Koha vous permet de dupliquer un adhérent et de changer seulement les parties que vous voulez (ou que vous avez besoin de) modifier.

  • Ouvrez la fiche de l’adhérent sur lequel vous voulez vous baser vos duplications.

  • Cliquez sur le bouton “dupliquer” en haut de la fiche

    Row of action buttons at the top of the patron's detail page: Edit, Add guarantee, Change password, Duplicate, Print, Search to hold, Add message, Schedule pickup, and More

  • Vous serez amené à un écran présentant le nouvel adhérent

    Duplicated patron

Adding patron images

You can add patron pictures to help identify patrons. To enable this feature, you must first set the patronimages system preference to “Allow”.

If the preference is set to “Allow”, you will see a placeholder image under the patron’s name on the left of the screen.

Patron details page, the patron's image on the left of the screen is a placeholder represented by a silhouette with an interrogation mark

Click the “Add” button on the placeholder image.

Patron photo pop-up modal, with options to upload an image or take a picture

You have the option of either uploading an existing picture from the computer or taking a picture with the webcam.

To upload an existing image, click “Browse” or “Choose file” to find the image on your computer and click “Upload” to load the image in the patron’s file.

Avertissement

Attention, il y a une limite de taille de l’image de 100 ko, nous vous conseillons une image de 200x300 pixels, mais les plus petites tailles fonctionnent également.

To take a picture with the webcam, click the “Take photo” button once the webcam is facing the patron. The system will take a picture and present it to you for review. If you are satisfied, click “Upload”. If not, click “Retake photo” to take a new picture. You can also download the picture by clicking “Download photo”.

Pour ajouter les images d’utilisateurs par lots, utilisez l’outil Chargement photos d’utilisateurs.

Modifier des adhérents

Il y a dans Koha de nombreuses façons de modifier la fiche d’un adhérent.

  • Pour modifier l’intégralité de la fiche de l’adhérent, cliquez sur le bouton Modifier qui se trouve en haut de la fiche.

    Row of action buttons at the top of the patron's detail page: Edit, Add guarantee, Change password, Duplicate, Print, Search to hold, Add message, Schedule pickup, and More

  • To edit a specific section of the patron record (for example the “Library use” section) click the “Edit” button beside the section.

    Library use section of the patron's detail page

Edit the patron’s file and click “Save”.

Avertissement

Note that changing your own username will log you out of Koha.

Modifying patron passwords

Patron passwords are not recoverable.

The stars on the patron details page next to the password label are always there even if a password isn’t set.

If a patron forgets their password, the only option is to reset their password.

This can be done from the staff interface. To change the patron’s password, click the “Change password” button.

Change username and/or password form

  • Koha cannot display existing passwords as they are encrypted in the database. Leave the field blank to leave password unchanged.

  • Ce formulaire peut générer automatiquement un mot de passe de façon aléatoire. Si vous cliquez sur le lien « cliquer pour compléter avec un mot de passe généré automatiquement. Le mot de passe affichésera un texte ».

Avertissement

Note that changing your own username here will log you out of Koha.

Changing the password through this form will also update the password expiry date, as set in the patron category.

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

Note

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

If the OpacResetPassword system preference is enabled, or if the patron category allows it, you can also send a password reset email to the patron by clicking on “More” and choosing “Send password reset”.

More button in a patron's account is open, the options are renew patron, set permissions, send welcome email, send password reset, delete, update child to adult patron, and export today's checked in barcodes

This will send a password reset email to the patron, similar to the one sent if they click on the “Forgot your password?” link on the OPAC. However, the reset link is set to expire after 5 days rather than 2 days when it is sent this way.

Note

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

Only staff members with “superlibrarian” permissions can see and change the password expiry date manually. This date can be changed by clicking the “Edit” button at the top of the patron’s record, or the “Edit” button next to the “Library use” section.

Adding patron flags

Restrictions are used to prevent patrons from checking out.

Patrons can also be blocked from checking items out by setting patron flags.

Patron account flags section of the patron edit form, options are Gone no address yes/no and lost card yes/no

If you would like your circulation staff to confirm a patron’s address before checking items out to the patron, set the “Gone no address” flag. This will create a warning when checking out.

Warning Cannot check out Address: patron's address flagged as in doubt

If the patron reports that they have lost their card you can set the “Lost card” flag to prevent someone else from using that card to check items out.

Warning Cannot check out Lost: patron's card is flagged as lost

If you would like to bar a patron from the library you can add a manual restriction.

Patron restrictions section of the patron edit form, add a manual restriction with fields for comment and expiration date

Note

This is the same as the restrictions tab at the bottom of the patrons details page.

Note

A patron can automatically be restricted with the Overdue/notice status triggers

If you enter in a date and/or note related to the restriction, you will see that in the restricted message as well.

Checkout is blocked for this patron because the patron is restricted

Adding notes and messages to a patron record

You can leave notes in a patron record. There are several ways to do this: you can either add a circulation note or an internal message. These will not show in the OPAC for the patron to see. If you want the patron to see the notes and messages, use OPAC notes and OPAC messages.

Circulation notes

Circulation notes are added to the patron’s file through the add patron form or the edit patron form, in the “Library set-up” section.

'Library set-up' and 'OPAC/Staff login' sections of the patron form

In the staff interface, circulation notes will be in the “Library use” section of the patron’s file.

Library use section of the patron's detail page

Circulation messages

Internal messages are added to the patron’s file using the “Add message” button.

Row of action buttons at the top of the patron's detail page: Edit, Add guarantee, Change password, Duplicate, Print, Search to hold, Add message, Schedule pickup, and More

To leave an internal message, choose « Staff - Internal note » in the “Add a message for” field. Enter your message in the box, or choose a predefined message in the drop-down menu.

Pop-up modal for 'Add message' with the option 'Add a message for Staff - Internal note' chosen

Note

Predefined messages are added in the BOR_NOTES authorized value category

Once saved, the internal message is shown in bold red on the patron’s detail page in the staff interface, at the top of the page just under the row of action buttons.

Internal message appearing in the patron's detail page in the staff interface just under the edit buttons

It will also appear on the checkout page, to the right of the checkout box.

Internal message appearing in the patron's checkout page to the right of the checkout box

If you need to edit the message, click the “Edit” button next to the message, edit the text and click “Save”.

Changing children to adults

Children patrons do not become adults automatically in Koha unless the update patron categories cron job is running.

To upgrade a child patron to and adult patron category manually go to the “More” menu and choose “Update child to adult patron”.

More button in a patron's account is open, the options are renew patron, set permissions, send welcome email, send password reset, delete, update child to adult patron, and export today's checked in barcodes

You will then be presented with a pop up window asking which one of your adult patron categories this child should be updated to.

Table to choose an adult category

Note

This list shows the patron categories that have the category type “adult”.

Renouveler le compte d’un adhérent

When renewing a patron account you can either edit the the expiry date manually in the patron record or use the “Renew patron” option from the More menu in the toolbar at the top.

|image1393|

Using the latter the new expiry date will be calculated using the enrollment period configured for the patron category of the user. The system preference BorrowerRenewalPeriodBase determines if the new expiry date will be calculated from the current date or from the old expiry date.

L’option de “renouvellement d’utilisateur” permet d’enregistrer les renouvellements d’abonnement dans table action_logs de la base de données. De plus, ces renouvellements seront aussi visibles dans l’outil Consultation des registres et dans l’onglet Registres de modifications du dossier utilisateur.

The renewal date of the patron account will be visible on the details tab.

|image1392|

Si l’adhérent relève d’une :ref:”catégorie d’adhérent <patron-categories-label>” ayant des frais d’adhésion, ces frais seront ajoutés aux frais de renouvellement. Vous pouvez gérer les frais dans l’onglet :”Comptabilité <fines-label>” de l’adhérent.

Supprimer le compte d’un adhérent

From the “More” drop-down, the patron account can be deleted.

image1469

There will be an alert if the patron has checkouts, holds, fines or credits.

  • If a patron has current checkouts, the deletion will not be possible.

    image1470

  • If a patron has outstanding fines, the deletion will not be possible.

    image1468

  • If a patron has unused credits, the option to delete the patron is possible but there will be a warning.

    image1471

  • If a patron has existing holds on their account, the option to delete the patron is possible. The hold will be cancelled and moved to the old_reserves table.

    image1462

  • If a patron has public or shared lists, those will be deleted along with the patron, unless the ListOwnershipUponPatronDeletion system preference is set to “change owner of these lists”.

  • If a patron is protected, the “Delete” option will be disabled. To delete the patron anyway, edit the patron and choose “No” under “Protected” in the “Library management” section, save, and then delete.

    The 'More' menu in a patron file is opened, the mouse cursor is on the greyed out 'Delete' option where a tip saying 'Patron is protected' is displayed.

Gestion des comptes par les adhérents

Si vous autorisez des adhérents à modifier leur compte via l’OPAC avec la préférence OPACPatronDetails alors vous devrez approuver tous les changements dans l’interface professionnelle avant qu’ils soient appliqués. S’il y a des modifications d’adhérent en attente de validation, elles apparaîtront sur le tableau de bord de l’interface professionnelle en-dessous de la liste des modules (avec d’autres éléments attendant une validation).

image438

Note

Les administrateurs verront les modifications pour tous les sites, les autres membres du personnel ne verront que les modifications des lecteurs qui appartiennent au site auquel ils sont connectés.

  • Dans la liste des adhérents, cochez les fiches que vous voulez fusionner et cliquez sur « Fusionner les adhérents sélectionnés ».

Restrictions

L’onglet Suspensions s’affichera sur toutes les fiches adhérents. Si l’adhérent n’est pas suspendu, cela sera aussi précisé.

Restrictions tab of the patron's file says "Patron is currently unrestricted" and there is an option to add a manual restriction

Si l’adhérent est suspendu, les précisions s’afficheront dans l’onglet Suspensions.

There are at least four kinds of restrictions:
  • Manual

  • Overdues

  • Suspension

  • Quitus

Using the “Add manual restriction” link you can add a restriction to the patron record from here. This can be used for any type of restriction you need to put manually on a patron record.

Form to add a restriction on the patron's file

  • Type: if the PatronRestrictionTypes system preference is enabled, you will have a choice of restriction types. This list can be managed from the patron restriction types administration page

  • Comment: enter a comment to explain the restriction

  • Expiration: optionally enter an expiration date for this restriction. If there is no expiration date, the restriction will stay on the file until it is removed. If there is an expiration date, the restriction will automatically be expired and it will show in gray.

    Version

    Expired restrictions are marked as such as of Koha version 23.11. In prior versions, if a restriction was expired, it looked the same as an active restriction, but it stopped blocking circulation nonetheless.

    Note

    Expired restrictions will stay visible in the patron’s file, but will not block circulation.

    You can use the cleanup_database.pl cronjob with the –restrictions flag to automatically remove expired restrictions.

List of restrictions currently on the patron's file, with the type of restriction, the comment, the expiration date and the date it was added. One of the restrictions expired in the past and is displayed in gray with the (expired) mention next to the date

The overdues restrictions are automatically set when overdue notices are sent if you specified you wanted the patron restricted in the overdue notice/status triggers tool.

Cette suspension ne sera levée automatiquement au retour des documents en retard que si la préférence système AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions est paramétrée sur “Permettre”.

In the circulation rules, you can choose to fine users by suspending them instead of (or in addition to) fining them money. In that case, returning an overdue document will trigger a suspension restriction.

Patrons may also be restricted if you have issued a discharge for them. Once the discharge is validated, the patron is automatically restricted.

Patrons can also be restricted by setting flags in their accounts.

Restrictions on a patron record will block checkouts. In fact, a message will appear in red when going to the checkout page.

Checkout is blocked for this patron because the patron is restricted

Les suspensions peuvent aussi empêcher le renouvellement des documents si la préférence système RestrictionBlockRenewing est paramétrée sur “bloquer”.

On the OPAC, patrons will get a message saying their account is frozen. They will not be able to place holds from the OPAC.

Message in the patron's account that says 'Please note: Your account has been frozen. Comment: Vandalism in study room 3 End date: 08/15/2022 Usually the reason for freezing an account is old overdues or damage fees. If your account shows to be clear, please contact the library. Go to your account page'

If you have patrons that have more than one restriction, you can choose to cumulate their restriction periods or not through the CumulativeRestrictionPeriods system preference.

Note

If you want to restrict patrons from doing various actions if their record is not pristine, check the following system preferences:

  • Set the OverduesBlockCirc system preference to “Block” to prevent patrons who have overdue materials from checking out other materials.

  • Set the OverduesBlockRenewing system preference to “block renewing for all the patron’s items” or “block renewing only for this item” to prevent patrons who have overdue materials from renewing their loans.

  • Enter values in the noissuescharge and NoIssuesChargeGuarantees system preferences in order to block checking out to patrons who have more than a certain amount in fines or to patrons whose guarantees owe more than a certain amount.

  • Enter a value in the maxoutstanding system preference to prevent patron from placing holds on the OPAC if they owe more than a certain amount.

  • Enter a value in the OPACFineNoRenewals system preference to prevent patron who owe more than a certain amount to renew their loans from the OPAC.

  • Set the BlockExpiredPatronOpacActions system preference to “Block” if you want to prevent patron whose membership has expired to place hold or renew their loans from the OPAC.

Clubs

If you use patron clubs, patrons will have a tab in their record indicating which club they are enrolled in, if any. The first number in the tab title is the number of clubs in which the patron is enrolled, and the second number is the number of clubs the patron is not enrolled in.

Authentification à 2 facteurs à l’interface professionnelle

Koha propose l’authentification à deux facteurs (2FA) pour la connexion à l’interface professionnelle.

This two-factor authentication uses a time-based one-time password (TOTP). A TOTP is a password can only be used once and is only valid for a limited time.

Users wanting to use the two-factor authentication must have an app to generate these TOTPs. Any authenticator app, such as Google Authenticator, andOTP, FreeOTP and many others can be used. Applications that enable backup of their 2FA accounts (either cloud-based or automatic) are recommended.

Activer l’authentification à deux facteurs avec la préférence système TwoFactorAuthentication.

Once this is done, the staff user must go to their account by clicking their username at the top of the page and clicking “My account”.

The user menu at the top of the page in the staff interface, the cursor is on the 'My account' option.

The user must then go to More > Manage two-factor authentication.

When two-factor authentication is enabled, the current logged in user has access to a 'manage two-factor authentication' option from the 'More' menu

The status should be “Disabled” when first going to this page.

The manage two-factor authentication page; the status is currently disabled; there is a button that says 'Enable two-factor authentication'

Click on “Enable two-factor authentication”.

A QR code will be presented. This code must be scanned with an authenticator app (see above for suggestions).

The manage two-factor authentication page; a QR code is presented with a field for a pin code underneath

Note

If the app doesn’t allow to scan QR codes, the page gives the credentials that can be entered manually (account, key, time-based).

Once the QR code is scanned, the app will return a time-based PIN code. The user must enter this PIN code in the PIN code field and click “Register with two-factor app”.

The status of the two-factor authentication will now be enabled.

Note

An email will be sent to the user’s email address to alert them that the two-factor authentication has been enabled on their account.

You can customize this message in the Notices and slips tool. The letter code is 2FA_ENABLE.

When this user tries to log in to the staff interface, they will have to enter their username and password, like always, but also a two-factor authentication code.

When two-factor authentication is enabled and a user has enabled it in their account, a two-factor authentication code field will appear after they have entered their username and password to log into the staff interface

The user must then open their authenticator app, generate a time-based one-time password and enter it in the field in order to log in.

Note

Alternatively, if the user doesn’t have the app handy, they can click on “Send the code by email”, which will send them an email with a time-based one-time password for them to use.

The email is based on the 2FA_OTP_TOKEN notice template, which can be customized in the Notices and slips tool.

Should the user wish to disable their two-factor authentication, they can go to their account in the staff interface, click More > Manage two-factor authentication and click “Disable two-factor authentication”.

The manage two-factor authentication page; the status is currently enabled; there is a button that says 'Disable two-factor authentication'

Note

An email will be sent to the user’s email address to alert them that the two-factor authentication has been disabled on their account.

You can customize this message in the Notices and slips tool. The letter code is 2FA_DISABLE.

Communiquer avec les adhérents

Koha offers several options for communicating with patrons, some of which have already been covered in this chapter.

OPAC notes

OPAC notes are added to the patron’s file through the add patron form or the edit patron form, in the “Library set-up” section.

'Library set-up' and 'OPAC/Staff login' sections of the patron form

They show up in the “Your summary” section of the patron’s online account in the OPAC.

Advance notices and hold notices

If you have enabled the EnhancedMessagingPreferences system preference, you cat set advance notices as well as hold notices when adding a new patron or editing a patron.

Si vous avez paramétré la préférence système :ref:”EnhancedMessagingPreferencesOPAC <EnhancedMessagingPreferencesOPAC-label>` sur “Afficher”, les adhérents pourront modifier leurs préférences de notifications à partir de leur compte OPAC.

  • Retour: Une notification qui liste tous les exemplaires que l’utilisateur a rendu.

  • Exemplaire prêté : Une notification qui liste tous les exemplaires empruntés et/ou renouvelés par l’utilisateur. C’est un reçu électronique qui récapitule tous les prêts

    Note

    If the RenewalSendNotice system preference is set to “Send”, this notice will be called “Item checkout and renewal”.

    For renewals, the notice sent is RENEWAL.

  • Interlibrary loan ready: A notice that is sent when an inter-library loan the patron requested has been fulfilled and is now ready for pickup.

    • Customize this notice by editing the ILL_PICKUP_READY notice in the Notices and slips tool

    • This option will only appear if the ILLModule system preference is enabled.

  • Interlibrary loan unavailable: A notice that is sent when an inter-library loan the patron requested has been cancelled because it was unavailable.

    • Customize this notice by editing the ILL_REQUEST_UNAVAIL notice in the Notices and slips tool

    • This option will only appear if the ILLModule system preference is enabled.

  • Auto renewal: A notice that notifies the patron that their checkouts have been automatically renewed, or if there was a problem with their automatic renewal.

    • This option will only appear if the ILLModule system preference is enabled.

Patrons can choose to receive their notices as a digest by checking the “Digest only” box along with the delivery method. A digest is a combination of all the messages of that type (so all items due in 3 days in one email) in to one email instead of multiple emails for each alert.

The delivery methods currently supported are:

  • Email

  • SMS (text messages)

  • Automated phone call system

  • Print

To generate the advance notices (advance notice and item due), you need to run the advance_notices.pl cronjob. Then, the process_message_queue.pl cronjob will send the notices or the gather_print_notices.pl cronjob will gather them in a nice file you can print out and send out via regular mail.

Notifications de retard

Les notifications de retard sont gérées dans Notifications & tickets et leurs conditions d” envoi sont gérées dans Paramétrage des relances.

Patrons cannot opt out of receiving overdue notices like they can other notices (such as advance notices or hold notices)

To generate the overdue notices , you need to run the overdue_notices.pl cronjob. Then, the process_message_queue.pl cronjob will send the notices or the gather_print_notices.pl cronjob will gather them in a nice file you can print out and send out via regular mail.
