For patron categories with restricted lending privileges, we use jQuery and CSS to color the background of #circ_circulation_issue and insert a short text string describing what a patron in this category is allowed to borrow (screenshot attached).

It'd be helpful to be able to define these things in patron categories somehow. Maybe we could save a color code for each category, to be applied to #circ_circulation_issue as a background or border? And also a short text string for each category to be inserted in that area?

Having this functionality would be a great help to our public services staff.  We have several "special loan" patron categories and this easy-to-notice visual alert would remind staff to not/loan particular items to that patron.
