Description Christopher Brannon 2020-12-09 17:30:09 UTC
Currently we have a library that is closed during COVID.  We have some of the items from that library at our library as a rotating collection.  When we stopped all holds using the default hold policy for that library, the items in the rotating collection were not holdable.

We should consider an exception for items that are rotating.  I would suggest a default hold policy for rotating collections that would supersede the default hold policy.

Currently, our only work around for this is to either individually block holds on specific rules for the library, or transfer ownership of the items.  Neither are ideal.  A rotating collections hold policy would be preferred and easier to manage.
