--- Comment #11 from Christopher Brannon <[email protected]> ---
I wonder if two things need to be addressed on this topic.  I think it is
ridiculous to allow just anyone to grab an item off a hold shelf and check it
out when the person it is on hold for has been notified.  That said:

1) There should be an option in settings to prevent this.  If a library decides
to just blanket allow this, then they can.

2) There should be a proxy setting for SCO.  If a patron plans to have a proxy,
the card number of that proxy should be listed in their account.  When the
proxy checks out the item that is on hold for someone else, it will confirm
that they are checking out on behalf of the person it is on hold for, and the
item is checked out on the holder's account, with a note that it was checked
out by that proxy.  This would also put in some ground work for functionality
behind practices that libraries already do.  Many libraries note that certain
people can pick up holds for them.  But it is just a note in their account. 
This would give this practice a little more teeth.
