Patron Registration

You can register patrons at any library location that has access to Polaris Patron Services. You can also register patrons offline, save the records, and upload the records to the online system or a system file. When you register a patron, you create a patron record that you can edit to reflect any changes to the account.

Note:
To register a patron quickly at check-out, you can do an express registration Entering patron information during the check-out process as a service to new, unregistered patrons.. See Express-register a new patron at check-out.

Your library may also allow patrons to set up new accounts through the PAC. In this case, you verify the new patron accounts before patrons can check out materials. See Resolve a Verify Patron block.
