Attachments: screenshot of dropdown with dummy library - 'Choose library'

screenshot of dropdown with dummy library - 'Choose library'

Hi
When using the self-registration form, users do not have to touch the dropdown list to choose a library to register with. This means that many do not interact with it, and when registering are not assigned to the correct library.

The dropdown list should be first blank and the user should not be capable of submitting it, without first choosing a library.

Adding branchcode to PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerMandatoryField does not make that interaction mandatory.

In the screenshot attached, you can see we added a library called 'Choose Library' to try to get users to use the dropdown.

We have some jquery that makes this work and I agree it would make sense and be helpful if Koha just did that.
