Checkin typically involves scanning or entering the item barcode. You do not need to identify the borrower. But if you want to, you can set up the display options to show the borrower name. You can also choose how Circulation displays information for those items that you try to check in which are not checked out.
You can choose from among several checkin modes. These include normal, bookdrop, in-house use, and exempt fines modes. Occasionally, you check in items needing special handling—something more than just reshelving. This includes fast-added items and damaged items as well as items that fulfill a borrower’s request. Circulation prompts you with the necessary action to take.
