            Bug ID: 21548
           Summary: ILLLIBS patron category / partner_code seems
                    extraneous
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: ILL

The original installation notes created by Alex for ILL
(https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7317#c20) describe a
requirement to create a new patron category with a code ILLLIBS, organisational
patrons are then attached to this category and their email address is used for
the "Place request with partners" function.

However, Koha ships with a patron category called "Inter-Library Loans" (code:
IL) which would appear to remove the requirement for an ILLLIBS category to be
created.

This bug proposes moving away from using ILLLIBS and using the pre-existing IL
category instead. Grepping the code for ILLLIBS reveals that it's assumed to
exist and will be used as a default code if one is not specified in the
<partner_code> element in koha-conf.xml, so modifications will be required.
