Print Classes and Library Cards
Welcome to our tutorial on how to print library cards using BiblioTECH's Patrons Manager. In this guide, we will take you through the step-by-step process of generating and printing library cards for your patrons. With different customisation options, you can create library cards tailored to your library's needs. Let's get started!
Part 1: Accessing Library Card Printing
- Begin by logging in to BiblioTECH's web app and navigating to the dashboard.
- In the dashboard, click on the "Patrons Manager" section. This is where you'll manage various aspects of your library's patron database.
- Once you're in the Patrons Manager, you'll find a tab labelled "Library Cards." Click on this tab to access the library card printing options.
Part 2: Printing Library Cards
Inside the Library Cards area, you'll discover several options for printing library cards. These options include:
- "Groups": Library cards for specific patron groups.
- "Groups (With Photo)": Library cards for patron groups, including patron photos.
- "Library Cards (Avery L7414)": Library card templates compatible with Avery L7414 label sheets.
- "Library Cards (Avery L7414) No Group": Library card templates for individual patrons, not grouped by any specific category.
- "Library Cards (Avery L7414) Marked": Library card templates for marked patrons.
- Select the desired printing option based on your library's requirements.
- If you've chosen an option that requires selecting specific groups, click on the "Add Groups" button. This will allow you to choose the patron groups for which you want to generate library cards.
- After selecting the printing option and adding the desired groups, click on the "Generate" button. This action will generate a PDF file containing the library cards.
- Open the generated PDF file, which will display the library cards ready for printing. Ensure that your printer settings are configured correctly for A4 label sheets.
- Load your A4 label sheets into the printer and click the print button. Your library cards will be printed with the selected information and formatting.
