Creating Outreach Patron Profiles

Polaris selects potential titles for outreach patrons based on settings in the patron record, including reading preferences and whether items checked out in the past should be re-sent after a specified period of time. You can note any disability or special equipment needs the patron may have, the number of items a patron should receive, and whether the patron chooses items from a system-generated list, or accepts any items the system has identified. Settings in the patron record also control delivery options for the patron. You can suspend outreach services for a particular patron, and reactivate them later as needed.
