We'd stop using our current method.

Thanks Chauncey, I'm curious though, if that bug was addressed, so it was clear
to staff in the catalog when the age protection was expired, would you still go
through this process every month? Or are there other reasons that you remove
the age protection settings?

We use a low-tech method: a reoccurring monthly report shows items needing age
protection removed. We import the barcodes into item status and batch remove
the protection. Not fully automated, but takes less than five minutes and
anyone on staff can do it.

Just so you know, there is a reason why the age protection remains,
but it is PINES specific. A PINES library, prior to Evergreen, was
returning items to age protection after it expired so that no other
system’s patrons could place holds. To prevent that, age protection in
Evergreen was designed to remain after expiration so that it could not
be reassigned to an item.

We have a cron that runs to do this from an SQL script.

Josh,
We have a custom made perl cron job to remove the protection. I didn't
realize it was a bug! I would be happy to share the perl script (it is
fairly custom to our needs but it can be adapted easily)

Hello, does anyone else out there remove the age protection from
copies after it has expired. I’ve been asked to set that up, and it
seems like a shame since it was designed to just work automatically,
except that items with expired age protection still show up as age
protected in the catalog. There is a bug open about it at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1251761
Does anyone currently go through and remove the age protection to
get around that issue? If so do you do it directly at the DB level
or do you use the client? Are there any gotchas about directly
updating asset.copy to change the age protection and also changing
the shelving location at the same time.
If anyone wants to combine resources to get that bug fixed, either
with brain power or development funding let me know also.
