Patron Card Creator

To create patron cards in Koha, you can follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Tools: Go to tools and select patron card creator.
  2. Create Card Layout: Create layout first.

  3. Choose Card Template: Select a card template or layout for the patron card.

  4. Review Card Information: Ensure that all necessary information, such as the patron's name, barcode, library card number, and any other relevant details, is included on the card.

  5. Preview and Print: Preview the patron card to verify its appearance and content. Once satisfied, proceed to print the card using a card printer or standard printer.

  6. Customize Card Layout (Optional): If Koha's default card templates don't meet your needs, you can create custom card layouts using external software (e.g., Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop) and import the patron information into the template.

  7. Communicate Card Issuance: Inform the patron about the issuance of their library card and any relevant instructions for its use.

  8. Distribute Patron Cards: Distribute the printed patron cards to the respective patrons.
