Jason, Thanks. Good to know. We have set this and I think it will be fine as being removed from every screen. We have so much trouble with holds now, that I am completely ok with not having it there at all. When you say staff function is effected, do you mean this also messes with

All – IS there a way to prevent the “place a hold” link from showing up in the public catalog, everywhere?? We want it so ONLY show up on items that fill our hold requirement – those items that are checked out or NOT available. We have set the proper condition in the Library Settings to
