    Question

    Is it possible to restrict the display of patron information in circulation GUI based on the sublibrary level? E.g. when having one sublibrary staff user A should only see the patrons of sublibrary ABC but not the patrons of sublibrary XYZ.

    Answer

    Unfortunately that's not possible. Staff user rights regarding patron information can only be assigned on ADM library level but nt on sublibrary level. Please see also "Staff User's Guide - Staff Privileges", page 15:

     

    Sublibrary Sensitivity

    You can create permissions for creation, deletion or update on the sublibrary level (and not only on the ADM level) for the following:

    · In both Cataloging and Circulation, records that have sublibrary identification - Local Patron Records, items and all item-related actions

    · In Circulation, some of the actions on a patrons list of loans (sublibrary is checked for Delete, Declare lost, Claim returned, and Renew but not for Change date)

    · In Circulation and Acquisitions, some of the batch services receive sub-library as a parameter. This is in order to display only permitted sub-libraries in the list in the service‟s form dialog box.
