Description Melia Meggs 2013-03-19 16:23:58 UTC

There is no option for requesting interlibrary loans in the menu boxes on the patron OPAC page once they log in. The closest choice is my purchase suggestions.

Can we add a menu box for my ILL requests with the accompanying pages similar to the purchase suggestions that will automatically email the librarian?

Work to be done:
1) Add new notice (code ILL_REQUEST, or similar)
2) Add new system preference OpacEnableILL (or similar)
3) Create new opac page that will display form
4) Add link in OPAC navigation
5) Add link to form when no results are displayed for a given search

It looks like PTFS Europe is already doing some work that is quite similar to the suggestions here: https://github.com/PTFS-Europe/koha/commits/3.8.ptfs_ILL

I think this is resolved with the addition of the ILL module and exsting backends.
