There is a plug-in to add a reCAPTCHA anti-bot test to the email form,
so presumably some people found automated spam a big enough problem to
be worth developing it:

reCAPTCHA does have privacy and accessibility concerns though.
There are integrations with circulation systems you could consider:

Hi all,
My institution is planning to launch the PUI this summer and we’re
interested in hearing from other institutions who are using the
“request” function either to generate an email or in tandem with
another system. Specifically, I’m interested in hearing if using this
button has generated an unreasonable volume of requests or
spam/bots/jerks using the button to cause chaos. (Or the opposite –
you expected a deluge of access requests but your usage stats stayed
about the same.)
This is a concern that has come up before, so I’d love some community
and peer institution anecdata for when it comes up again.
Thanks!
