Hello Everyone,

PaILS is interested in pursuing future development for bug 
1721053<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1721053> and we'd like to see 
how other consortia feel about it. Currently there is max hold option in the 
hold policies, but it doesn't limit to just the hold policy scenario but rather 
all holds.  For example, if you have a hold policy that says that patrons can 
have a max hold of 2 on the kit circulation modifier it will block patrons from 
placing holds on kits if they have more than 2 holds on any other circulation 
modifiers.   We have a few libraries that want to limit the number of holds 
patrons can have on higher ticket items like hotspots and library of things 
items.  They might have a higher limit on other circulation modifiers like 10 
dvds and 25 on books.

We are interested in seeing how folks would prefer this to function.  Would a 
hold limit set, similar to how the circulation limit sets,  as suggested in the 
comments work?  Would you prefer the max hold value work on the individual hold 
scenario and leave it in the policy as it is now?  Does anyone have an 
alternative idea?

Thanks,
