Hello everyone,

I was wondering if someone could help me get some clarity on hold targeting 
within records that have a mix of items with parts and without.

In a record like this one: http://tinyurl.com/pbg9lkz, there are a mix of 
libraries that don't split out the item into parts and those that do.

My question is, when a patron (or staff member) goes to place a title level 
hold on a record that has a mix of parts and no parts, if they select the 
default "All Parts" option instead of "Part 1" or "Part 2" (pic: 
http://tinyurl.com/lqaogmy), does the hold target both parts as a whole in 
addition to the other, non-parted items? Or does it fill the hold by grabbing 
the first available item? Basically, when a patron selects the "All Parts" 
option, what is Evergreen looking at when choosing where to place the hold? 
Hope that made some sense. Curious if patrons might be getting a "Part 2" of 
something when they thought they were getting the entire collection.

Just basically looking for some advisement on hold targeting behavior with a 
mix of parts/no parts.

Thanks!
