Re: Courtesy Notices

["Julie Wilcocks" <Wilcocks.J@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi
We create a boolean list of all items that have a due date within the following  two weeks for patrons who have email only.  We then send this list out via Notices - checked out items -  and the patrons get what we call a pre-due notice, (ie a warning of items that are about to fall due).  We send this out weekly so if a patron has an email address they get two warnings of items about to fall due.  It is much appreciated by our staff members.

I am looking someone who may have found a work around for using
Statements of Checked-Out Items for courtesy notices.  Most of our
patrons who would benefit from a reminder have a gazillion things
checked out.  So when they are reminded of 2 or three items about to
become due, they also get an unwieldy list of everything they have
checked out.  Using statements of checked out items for this is way too
clunky.  
 
Thanks,
