[ISLMA-Share] Library Clerk Training

[Pam Meiser]

On the left hand side, there is a button that says *R*eset. On my screen,
it looks like this:

Resetting between patrons can be a pain, but it's a good habit to get into.
Some of our textbook bar codes are the same as our patron bar code #s. If
we don't click on Reset between patrons, then we type in the next patron's
number on the Check out screen, we may accidentally check out a text book
to the previous patron.

I hope this helps!

Pam
