Enter Street Address Line 1, Street Address Line 2 (only if applicable), City, and State/Province.

Step 4

Click Save. Closing the Contact Card without hitting Save also saves your changes. If relevant, remove the prior address or use Set Primary Address (via gear icon on contact Card or button on the Address Tab) to change the patron's primary address to the new entry.

The new address will now appear on the Contact Card and Address Tab of the Patron Window and be searchable from the Contact List. The primary address will be indicated with a green dot icon.

Then repeat steps 1 and 2 to delete the now secondary address.
