Patron records
For each patron that submits a request into Relais ILL a patron record must exist. Patron records created in several different ways, including patron registration, self registration, patron load, and NCIP.
The patron record typically includes information as to the delivery preferences and addresses to use as well as an email address for any messages. Statistical categories and the department can also be specified.
