Monday Minutes: Batch Remove Course Reserves

by Kelly McElligott on Dec 6, 2021

In this week's Monday Minutes, Kelly and Jessie show off a new button (or two) for users of the Course Reserve module.

Course Reserves

In Koha, there are two new options for libraries looking to batch remove reserves from their courses. This is a super helpful feature that will allow libraries to remove all reserves from a course or scan in barcodes to remove them from any course.

Let's break this down into steps:

If a library had a bunch of reserves that needed to be removed completely from the module and they were attached to various course, the librarian would choose 'Batch Remove Reserves' from the listing of all courses within the module. They would then scan in the barcodes.

As indicated in the screenshot above, these items will be removed from any course they are attached to.

The other option a librarian has now - is to batch remove all the reserves attached to a course. For this to happen, the librarian will choose the course from the list of courses in the Course Reserves module. Once in the course, the librarian can see all the items attached to this particular course and now has a button 'Remove all Reserves'.

This will allow easy removal of all attached items to this course.
