Tools > Activity
Activity is an unattended kiosk interface that allows you to keep count of patron visits, volunteers, and event attendees. Information gathered from this module can be presented to administrators or funding sources for planning and funding purposes.
This module is currently in beta, meaning it will be available to use as a free add-on for a period of time.
Access and Set Up
How Patrons Use the Activity Module
1. Type or scan a patron barcode and click Enter.
2. In the top left corner, the patron's picture, name, and number of holds will pop up. Patrons can then select their reason (Visit, Event, Classroom Project, or PTA) and click Confirm in the top right corner. You can also click Cancel to enter a different patron barcode.
3. A notice will flash at the bottom of the screen showing your name and date.
Then you're good to go! Alexandria will keep track of recorded names, reasons, dates, and times.
Record Activity in Circulation
