Presentation Transcript

  1. Printing Patron Address Labels from Millennium at Checkout Anne Hall

  2. The macros described in this presentation were originally developed by Kevin Moffat at Open Polytechnic of New Zealand and adapted by us from his original design

  3. Requirement for patron address labels Large number of extramural students = demand for library books to be posted out to patrons:

  4. Wasn’t difficult in Innopac We produced patron address labels from the old Innopac system (with telnet interface) using Bob Rasmussen’s Anzio Print Wizard Worked well for many years

  5. Is difficult in Millennium Print Wizard for Millennium was considered too expensive Millennium’s “Holds Mailing Labels” feature ruled out – would print an address label for each hold on checkin, not a label for each patron on checkout As a result, checkouts to extramural students continued to be done using the telnet interface - unsatisfactory
