Trending FAQ
I noticed that I have ten extra patrons that I was not aware of. Who are these additional patrons?
The ten additional patrons you see are default System Patrons in Alexandria. These specific patrons cannot be removed, but they can be very helpful to you and your library. To learn more about System Patrons, please visit our System Patrons support center page.
How do I advance my patron grades?
Everyone updates their patron records differently. Advancing patron grades may already be taken care of if you use patron imports or a SIS integration.
If not, go to your Grade Table Preferences and click Advance All Grades once. Check a patron record to make sure it worked properly.
