Hi Dale,

We added that information at Pierce. Take a look at the attached screenshot and let me know if that’s what you’re looking for.

Thanks,
Lesley

Dale,

I assume you’re looking to include associated book titles with their respective fines and fees on that notice.

That might be possible, but as design, I believe the fines and fees notice is really designed to provide an additional summary notification to patrons about money owed to the library.

The overdue and lost notices are the ones that, by design, have the titles on them.

As an alternative to the fines and fees notice, you could instead send out the full borrowing activity report on a periodic schedule. That full activity notice gives the patron a listing of all of their current checkouts, overdues, and lost stuff, as well as fines and fees.

It’s the same report that you can send manually from the Patron Services screen, the “send activity report” option…

Has anyone edited the fines and fees notice so that it shows exactly what the fines and fees are for, and if so are you willing to share the code for what you did?
Thanks!
