University of the Arts London is also interested in having AUTO_RENEWALS made (optionally?) a digest notice, and we have contacted Bywater Solutions suggesting this development proposal be added to their Crowd Sourcing page in the hope the idea will attract additional funding contributors. If this problem were to be solved the only remaining problem preventing us from using auto-renewals (without our workaround) would be the "spamming" email problem described in 19014<https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19014>. We will be testing the patches held in that bug report to see their effect in the coming days.

ByWater provided a quote of $5,000. The development would be based on bug #18532 (https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18532) which would create auto renewal notices as a patron messaging preference that would include a digest option. We'd love to hear from other libraries that could help fund this development, even if it is only a small amount.
