[Bug 3591] New: "Family administrator" account for OPAC
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3591 Summary: "Family administrator" account for OPAC Product: Koha Version: rel_3_2 Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P4 Component: OPAC AssignedTo: jmf@liblime.com ReportedBy: bibliwho@gmail.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Change sponsored?: Sponsored I'd like a designated parent to have the ability to access all the OPAC features that their children normally would when the latter log in to the OPAC under their own accounts. In other words, when a parent logs in to their own account, they will also be able to do all of these for their children's accounts: (from http://koha.org/documentation/manual/3.0/opac/your-account) View and renew items checked out View and renew items overdue View status of and cancel holds you have placed View fines you owe Submit changes to your personal details (like name or address) Submit a change to your password View your Reading History (also known as 'Checkout History') Manage your purchase suggestions (view status and add) Manage how you're notified by the library of events and due dates Review an edit your lists If new features are planned under 3.2, then these should also be available. Rationale: A family administrator account would make it much easier for families to maintain their library accounts. At present, for example, the simple task of making a list of all family items due back would require a parent to set up user logins for each of his/her children & log in under each of those accounts. Note that this should be an _option_ at the child account level. To meet librarians' long-standing respect for patrons' privacy & intellectual freedom, access to account information for young adults in particular may need to be limited to that account alone (& staff of course.) -- 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.

Then it can be either turned on or off on a case by case basis. It would also be cool to be able to 'nominate' a secondary parent card. I would like to sponsor this now rather than waiting because we are planning a reregistration exercise in the next few months and this would be a good opportunity to get all these linkages and settings tidied up. -- 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.
