Description Christopher Brannon 2024-01-05 21:39:06 UTC
Koha has always been to broad in what libraries a staff member can switch to.  Now that we have the loggedinlibraries permission, it would be good to take this to the next level and set what libraries the user can switch between.

I envision an button next to this permission that, when clicked, brings up a modal listing all defined branches and a check box next to each.  Admin would pick which libraries the staff member can switch between.

with the loggedinlibraries permission active, the user would see the library dropdown, but only the libraries checked in the permission would be active selections.  We could either remove or deactivate the choices the staff member is not allowed to choose from.

+1 This would be very helpful to us.  Particularly if staff could only choose libraries in their library group.
Comment 2 Christopher Brannon 2024-01-24 23:35:01 UTC
I'm all for taking advantage of groups, but let's not limit it to just groups.  I have a staff member that works between two different libraries, and a group would not help in that case.
