From mstjohn at sad17.k12.me.us Wed Jan 20 14:33:16 2010 From: mstjohn at sad17.k12.me.us (Melissa St John) Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2010 14:33:16 -0500 Subject: [downloadlibrary] patron access problems Message-ID: Hi, I am having access issues to download audiobooks. It doesn't seem to like any of my patron numbers including mine. I have looked at the available reports but didn't see anything that would tell me what numbers were there from my school. Also wondering how to eliminate a block of numbers and add a block as well. That is assuming I have any patron numbers in there at this time. Any help someone could provide would be super. thanks Melissa St. John Library Media Specialist Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School 256 Main Street S.
