Description Martha Fuerst 2019-10-29 18:34:35 UTC
We would take advantage of the auto-renewal option if there was a way to inform patrons when their items did not successfully renew. The AUTO_RENEWALS notice should be able to do that, but because it isn't a digest, patrons can easily miss the notice that tells them about the one item that didn't renew.

Please consider the following:

·Add digest ability to AUTO_RENEWALS notices
·Add ability to customize the script for the AUTO_RENEWALS notices so that only the Holds portion can be sent – or create a separate autorenewal/hold failed digest notice
·Allow use of the combination of RENEWALS notices (digest) with AUTO_RENEWALS notices (holds only) and in digest

Thanks,

Marti Fuerst, Huntsville-Madison County Public Library

We use auto-renewal and it can be a problem when specific items don't get renewed. I think this is a a good idea.

We use autorenewal. We are small enough that we manually email patrons when holds are not renewed.  I could see this being an issue if we were a larger library.  I think this is a good idea to pursue.

This is a great idea.  Would love to see a Autorenew_success and Autorenew_fail digest.

We are planning to use Auto-Renewals soon. It would be nice if we do able to see those functions get implemented. 

Thanks.

We have about 1/3 of our libraries using auto-renewals.  We think this is a good idea.
