Borrowing: Rapido ILL Requests In Koha – Automatic Borrowing

Receiving Borrowed Items

  1. Check the item in as usual in Koha. Select Print slip and confirm (P) to print the hold slip.
Note: Some libraries may choose to use the included paging slip (with patron name) rather than printing a hold slip.

2. The status of the item changes to Item received and the patron will be notified by their preferred notification method that the item is ready to be picked up.

3. The item checks out like any other item in the system.

Returning Borrowed Items

  1. Check in the item like normal in Koha.
  2. Acknowledge the pop-up to print the return slip.

Where to find patron / item information:

  1. Select ILL requests from home page.

2. Use the filters to search for the patron or item.

3. This information can be used to identify the patron, the item, the institution, and the status of the item.
