 All communication between the system using the JSIP2 library and the ILS is initiated by the system. The ILS only responds to the messages sent by the system, it does not initiate messages. For each message sent from the system, there is a required response message from the ILS.
 
-Each request/response pair should stand on its own, irrespective of any previous or future request/response pair. However, there's at least one exception to this rule, because usually it's not possible to complete any patron or item related actions without authentication, which happens by sending the Login Request message first. To be able to login to the library system a valid username and password are needed. Some additional information may also be required, as the parameters needed in the Login Request message vary between different library systems. 
+Each request/response pair should stand on its own, irrespective of any previous or future request/response pair. However, there are some exceptions to this rule, because usually it's not possible to complete any patron or item related actions without authentication and patron validation.
+
+Authentication happens by sending the Login Request message containing a valid username and password. Some additional information, like circulation location for example, may also be required, as the parameters needed in the Login Request message vary between different library systems. 
 
 After a succesful login, the SC Status request should be sent to the library system, that responds with the ACS Status message, which contains information about the operating parameters and supported messages. After receiving the ACS Status response the system is ready for normal operation.
 
+Validating the patron happens by sending the Patron Status Request or the Patron Information Request to the ILS, which response contains the information about the validity of the patron. This information should be checked programmatically before any circulation transactions take place.

+Please see the complete SIP2 Developers Guide by 3M for further information.
