Description Lisette Scheer 2023-04-19 15:52:27 UTC
A library can belong to more than one local hold group. 

It would be nice if "Default checkout, hold and return policy" & "Holds policy by item type" by library could be set by either "local hold group" (which currently allows any branch in any local hold group it's in) OR to allow a specific hold group. 

Example of where having both would be useful:

Library Group A:

Library 1
Library 4
Library 5
Library 6
Library 7

No other branches (2, 3, 8) can place holds on any of those libraries items. 

Library Group B:
Library 4
Library 5
Library 6

Group B wants a specific item type to be available to their patrons but not to library 1 or 7, even if they're picking up at library 4, 5, or 6 for some reason.
