<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I've created 3 user groups-- student, faculty, staff-- for each WACTCLC institution.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">That's probably overkill and you could probably get away with just a "WACTCLC Patron" user group, but I thought having the institution name in the user group would help circ staff know which library to contact
in situations where people didn't return library materials (which has actually happened more than once). If you use a "WACTCLC Patron" user group, you'll need some other way to record which institution someone is affiliated with in their patron record. Maybe
a note in the patron record?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Patron accounts in Alma are created as "Internal users" and people have to show proof of current student or employee status + provide us with their EMPLID when requesting an account.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Loan rules in Alma for the WACTCLC patrons (still turned off from COVID shutdown) allow them to borrow/renew for the same periods as our students, faculty & staff but they're not allowed to place holds.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hey everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Back in 2017 we had a student from another college stop into the library and check out a book. This was the last time we had to invoke the “Reciprocal Borrowing Agreement” that allows students from CTCs to check out books from other libraries.
Since then, all we have done is ILL.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am wondering if anyone has any document or language around the reciprocal borrowing agreement (if it’s even still an active thing), and how you handle it in Alma.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you!<o:p></o:p></p>
