How can we improve Alma?

← Alma

New type of block : booking

Currently the Block Preferences in Alma have Block options to permit Blocks on :

· Block types 01 et 02= Loan and renewals

· Block type 03= Loan and renewals and request

· Block type 04 = Resource sharing

· Block type 05 = Request

It would be good to include a type of block for Booking only. It would allow us to block Booking without blocking other services for a patron.

Right now libraries can’t choose to sanction a booking abuse without blocking every other service. It is too strong a sanction for some users.

Best regards,

    Dear all,
    According to our SF Case 06990227, booking cannot be blocked with any of the user blocks, even the 03 which is the strongest.
    In addition to create a new type of block as this idea exchange suggests it (solely booking block), will this new booking type be included in a stronger type (like e.g. loan, renewal, request, booking)?
    Thank you in advance and best regards,
    Renaud
