Updating Patrons Each patron has two types of information: patron-
specific and site-specific.
Update
Patron-specific information is the patron's personal information, for example, Last Name and Birthdate. This information is the same for the patron at each site where the patron is associated. It is listed under Patron Information.
Site-specific information is tied to a patron's site association, for example, Barcode and Patron Type. This information can be different for the patron at each site. It is listed under Site Information.
School patrons managers can edit school-specific information for their school only, while district patrons managers can edit school-specific information for any school the patron is associated with.
Media specialists are school patrons managers and have a Search across the district check box so they can also associate patrons of other sites with their sites.
