Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Electronic books not opening

This is great Jane! Thanks very much.

The updated script should appear here next time the docs are regenerated (within 24 hours): http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/3.1/_creating_an_sql_script_for_importing_patrons.html Looking forward to further discussion of this desired functionality. -Jane On Wed, Jun 27, 2018 at 6:31 AM, Rogan Hamby wrote: > That's certainly possible.

Jane-- Thanks for suggesting this. This is exactly what we would want at Niagara College.

I agree that a GUI batch loader would be very helpful. However, several libraries need to batch load these patrons on a daily basis, since students may start programs at various times throughout the semester. So the nightly cron job script approach is pretty important for these cases, and I think it would be nice if there were a more standard way in Evergreen to do that particular approach. I'm wondering if we might consider including a very general, flexible patron batch import/update script in the support-scripts directory. Thoughts? -- Jane Sandberg Electronic Resources Librarian Linn-Benton Community College sand...@linnbenton.edu / 541-917-4655 Pronouns: she/her/hers
Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reminder: Student Success Working Group
Hi-- Could we please add importing batch student (patron) records to Evergreen to the agenda? Curious to see what other institutions are doing. We have an automated process at the college that we need rethink/redevelop.
