Article Summary

Surpass Cloud SIP Service is an optional subscription that enables e-book and other services such as Overdrive, Baker & Taylor Axis 360, EnvisionWare, Hoopla, and others, to access certain patron information to allow patrons to access e-book or other content using the same patron number and password they use for OPAC and Self-Check and to determine whether the patron has any blocks that prevent access to the content.

Contact Surpass Software to learn about adding SIP Service to your Surpass Cloud subscription.

Options

  • Require patron to enter password - Typically, you would want your e-book provider to ask for both the patron's ID and password. Un-check this box to allow patrons to access content with their patron ID number alone.
  • Do not allow check out if balance if over - Check this box and enter an amount if you want to prevent patrons who have a fines balance over this amount from accessing content on the services. Setting the amount to 0.00 would mean that patrons with fines of any amount would not be blocked from accessing the content.
  • Do not allow check out if number of overdue resources is over - Check this box and enter a number to prevent patrons who have more than a given number of overdue resources from accessing e-book or other content on the services. Setting the number to 0 would mean that patrons who have any overdue resources would be blocked from accessing the services.
  • Include patron type in patron info (PC field) - Ask your e-book or other service provider whether it requires this information. If checked, the short caption of the patron type will be included in the data sent to the service provider.
