This patch would allow for that scenario, Paul.

“not-logged-in” users don’t have a Patron Category, so whatever is hidden by 
OpacHiddenItems stays hidden. By setting PatronSingleBranch to PT (assuming 
that is your patron code), then anything hidden from the public would be 
visible for a logged in person. Or perhaps you are a consortium of branches and 
every branches hidden items would be visible to any patron from any branch 
using PatronEveryBranch set to PT would allow for any OpacHiddenItem to become 
visible once your patrons log in. However, PatronSingleBranch set to PT would 
only show the hidden items from the patron’s assigned branch. By creating other 
patron categories, you can fine tune the visibility based on the user’s home 
branch or everything.

GPML,
Mark Tompsett
