Hello. My name is Glen Modell and I work at the Ann Arbor District Library in
Michigan. We have been using Innovative since 2005 but are investigating the
Evergreen system. I am looking into how I would migrate patron records, and I
have several questions for anyone who could take a moment to answer them.
First, how are you using the following fields: Active, Master_account,
Super_user, Barred, Usr_group, Last_xact_id?
Second, I see that I can segment off patrons as local/nonlocal and
adult/juvenile by using the Juvenile and Within_CIty_Limits fields. But we
also have business cards and so on. What field/fields are you using in the
Evergreen patron record to distinguish between different types of patron cards?
Third, when I register a new patron in the client, I see a bar labeled
Statistical Categories at the bottom of the screen. This is not a link and I
wondering how this is used.
I'd appreciate any responses. Thanks. -- Glen.
