How to renew a single copy or stack of copies

If a patron, such as a teacher, brings a stack of items to the circulation desk and

wants to renew them, you can renew them quickly without retrieving the patron

information for each item. To do this, switch to the Renewals window and scan

the copy barcode:

Brief copy information appears in

the title information box.

Scan or type the copy barcode

here.

Check to see if a

special due date

is in effect before

renewing.

Brief patron information appears

in the patron information box.

If any block conditions apply to the patron who is trying to renew the item, a

block message appears. For more information about block conditions, see

Handling block conditions during a transaction" on page 127.
If the copy you're renewing requires special attention, a circulation note may

appear. Circulation notes are attached to the copy record in Cataloging. For more

information about circulation notes, see Chapter 24, Working with copies."
If the copy you are renewing is overdue, and if a fine is generated, a message

appears. You can record a fine payment by switching to the Fines window. For

information about recording fine payments, see Chapter 11, Dealing with fines

and lost copies."
