How Can We Help?
When adding a new member to your library the only place where a new child’s details can be added is on the Member Detail page. As explained in the Member Detail page article, there are a number of ways to access this page.
However, to update or amend or delete an already existing member’s child there are two places you can go to do this; the Member Detail page or the Children List.
