Bursar integration/export

Investigate/inquire how UCSC & UCD export fees to bursar

10-15?

Sahra/Antonio?/Nicole?

Follow up on the UC Consortial Block Decision for 04/05 blocks.

UCSC & UCD export fees to bursar, causing balances to zero out. is there a way to generate a report that is not tied to fine/fee balances? The goal is for Libraries to have local control over 04 or 05 blocks and if something is kicked out to the bursar’s office, it adds another layer of complexity and time) into the process.

Notes from last meeting:

UCSC doesn’t block people because of fines. Would rather just have the patron reach out about returning/replacing a block. Once the process goes to the bursar’s office, the Library is out of picture.

Action items from last meeting:

• UCSC will inquire about what happens on the AFN if a patron is blocked (or unblocked but still has business with the bursar). See email ->

• UCD haven't had a chance to sit down with billing coordinator yet. Will hopefully get something in writing for next week.

Email from Nicole @ UCSC:

It was settled that since we care more about the return of books rather than fines payment that we would keep all fines and fees listed on network user accounts in order for home institutions to place blocks on accounts. This is a change from what we currently do/have done in the past which was to use bill posting as the event that would get the patrons attention.

With that being said, we are still working out the finer points of how to proceed if a patron actually cannot return an item and needs to pay the fine through the bursar's office rather than return items.

Expired network user records

UCR student was trying to loan an AFN item from UCLA. The UCLA stub account was expired which prevented them from loaning the UCLA book at UCR.

Merced uses “Count of Items Loaned by Patron Type” found in the analytic catalog Shared Folders>Alma>Fulfillment>Reports and edits it. Added a filter for Physical Item Details - Item Policy (to remove room keys, white board markers, etc); and filtered the Loan Date to begin July 1 and end June 30 (to capture whichever FY we’re looking at); when we run the report we remove “network” and use the total.

Offline Circulation Tool

• Are you using it?

• How do you like it?

15 (could probably push to next meeting if needed)
