 ===== Choosing a platform ===== ===== Choosing a platform =====

 +At the DIG meeting on June 6, 2019, it was agreed that we would **initially use Asciidoc** and worry about how to print single-page documents later.
  
 Asciidoc version proof-of-concept: [[http://www.sandbox.lbcc.linnlibraries.org/Evergreen/docs/quickstarts/check_out.html|example]], [[https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/sandbergja/docs_quickstarts|git branch]] Asciidoc version proof-of-concept: [[http://www.sandbox.lbcc.linnlibraries.org/Evergreen/docs/quickstarts/check_out.html|example]], [[https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/sandbergja/docs_quickstarts|git branch]]

 +When it comes time to think more about printing, here are some platforms to consider:
  
 ^           ^ Pros  ^ Cons  ^ ^           ^ Pros  ^ Cons  ^
 | Asciidoc  | easy to re-use existing screenshots, built-in version control, system for managing access already exists, review process already exists, open source technologies | intimidating for new contributors, not built for one-pagers, less flexible in terms of layout, no visual cue when content goes over one page | | Asciidoc  | easy to re-use existing screenshots, built-in version control, system for managing access already exists, review process already exists, open source technologies | intimidating for new contributors, not built for one-pagers, less flexible in terms of layout, no visual cue when content goes over one page |
 | Google docs | easy and familiar interface for contributing, lower bar for entry | Adds another technology for DIG to manage, version control might be challenging, contributors would be free to change things in ways that don't fit with our vision, not open source | | Google docs | easy and familiar interface for contributing, lower bar for entry | Adds another technology for DIG to manage, version control might be challenging, contributors would be free to change things in ways that don't fit with our vision, not open source |

 +==== Check out ====
 +
 +Hello, my name is []. This video is about Checking out items in Evergreen with a library card. This video is part of the Evergreen ILS Quick Starts series.
 +
 +For this video, imagine that a library user comes to you and wants to check out an item. They have a library card with a barcode.
 +
 +To help this user, we will first click on "Check Out Items".
 +
 +If you have a barcode scanner, use it to scan the user's barcode. I don't have a barcode scanner, so I will just type in the barcode and click Submit.
 +
 +The checkout screen is the first screen to display when the record is retrieved unless the patron has alerts which will display first.
 +
 +
 +Patron with alerts: 99999387993
 +Patron without alerts: 99999315474
