Manage patrons

Each Destiny user is considered a patron and must have a patron record that associates them with the materials they check out, fines they incur, and any other patron transactions. The Manage Patrons page lets you search for an existing patron or create a new patron.

Important: 

  • If you have an automated patron update process in place, any manual edits to a patron record are overwritten the next time the update runs.
  • This Help topic covers the original Manage Patrons page. Check out the redesigned page, Search Patrons, for an enhanced experience.
