Description Christopher Brannon 2023-11-14 19:52:21 UTC
Some libraries may want the option to notify patrons when a restriction is placed on their account.  We should add these notifications to the templates, and allow a checkbox (that can be on or off by default in prefs) to send a notification to patrons.

Does this refer specifically to a manual restriction?

I believe so.  I know that restrictions can be automated with overdues, and language can be added to the overdue notifications, but in any other case, it would be good if we could send notifications.
