Summary
Email notification is available for Patrons who have their own private Interests as well as a subscription to Shared Interests in one or more Interest Groups. When the Housekeeping process identifies any newly added resources, as matching any Patrons’ Interests, “public” or “private”, an email notification is sent to all those Patrons.
Email Notification and Alert Example
Information on the email includes:
- Any Interest Groups and related Interests for which new resources have identified. Under these are the Titles of any the matching resource/s which are a link which when clicked by the Patron will display that resource record in the Search interface.
- A link which when clicked will display all matching resources in the OPAC.
Each Interest and Interest Group, to which new resources have been matched, are clickable links. Patrons can click on the link to view the resource/s.
Messages Option in My Portal
Once the patron has logged into the OPAC they can access the Messages option in My Account. An Alert is sent to the Messages option whenever a newly added resource, matching their Interests, both private public and public has been identified in the Housekeeping process run.
Each Interest Alert is a link which when clicked will display a list of all resource titles matching the Interest.
Click on the corresponding Delete icon (trash can) to delete the Alert.
