[Bug 3359] New: Patron detail page should show "home library" instead of "registration branch"
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3359 Summary: Patron detail page should show "home library" instead of "registration branch" Product: Koha Version: HEAD Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: Patrons AssignedTo: wizzyrea@gmail.com ReportedBy: wizzyrea@gmail.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Change sponsored?: --- The patron detail page shows a row of information labeled "registration branch" which is useful information, but not always accurate as labeled. Example: Patron 1 acquired their library card at Library A in Town A. Patron 1 lives in Town B, and would like library materials delivered to Library B. This means that their registration branch is technically Library A, even though their selected "home library" is Library B. The patron edit screen labels this information as "Home library," which I believe to be more accurate labeling. Staff could be confused into thinking that "registration branch" is the library where the patron initially registered, instead of the branch/library where the materials will be delivered. I'm not sure that the original registration branch is necessary information, but it might be nice to have, especially in consortia. That would be a bigger fix, I think. Regardless, terminology wise it's different information than "home library," which is what the label is referring to. The labels should be consistent. Just adding this to remind myself to fix it, after a period for comment. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The patron detail page shows a row of information labeled "registration branch" which is useful information, but not always accurate as labeled.
Example:
Patron 1 acquired their library card at Library A in Town A. Patron 1 lives in Town B, and would like library materials delivered to Library B. This means that their registration branch is technically Library A, even though their selected "home library" is Library B. The patron edit screen labels this information as "Home library," which I believe to be more accurate labeling.
Staff could be confused into thinking that "registration branch" is the library where the patron initially registered, instead of the branch/library where the materials will be delivered.

Regardless, terminology wise it's different information than "home library," which is what the label is referring to. The labels should be consistent.

To my eye that's not specific enough. Am I being too picky? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

You could also change them all to say: Branch Home Library Home Home Branch Gotta pick sometime, right? Maybe there's a better way that I'm not thinking of? :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
