Your system administrator can set a time period after which borrower records need to be renewed. When the time period is reached, Horizon prompts you to renew the borrower’s registration. You have the option to proceed with the renewal, cancel the checkout and renewal procedure, or override the renewal procedure and continue with checkout. If you override the renewal prompt, Horizon prompts for renewal the next time you identify the borrower.
You can renew a borrower’s registration before the expiration date. (For instructions, see About Borrower and Item Records.)
You can use two methods to renew a borrower’s registration:
• | Automatic. Periodically Horizon prompts you to update the registration. The period between renewals is determined by library policy and is set by your system administrator as part of each borrower’s BTYPE. |
• | Manual. At any time you can open a borrower’s record and change the expiration date. (For more information, see About Borrower and Item Records.) |

If the borrower’s registration has expired, Horizon displays an Expire Library Registration window.
2 | Click Renew. |
Horizon displays the Edit Renew Registration window.
3 | Update any information that has changed. (For example, you can verify the borrower’s address and phone number.) |
4 | Save your changes. |
