Only members can borrow books. Add students here, give them an optional member code, and switch a member to Inactive when they should stop borrowing. Teachers and staff who are already members show here too, with their type.

What you see on this page

  • Two totals: Members and Borrowing now (members who have a book out).
  • Status filters: All, then one for each status that exists, with counts. They only show when members have more than one status.
  • The table: Member (with photo and link to the person), Type (Student, Teacher or Staff), Code, Active loans and Status.
  • Edit and delete icons on each row, for people who can manage the library.
