Hi all--
We here at Bibliomation *think* there is a way in Evergreen to set
consortially a limit on the total number of hold requests that can be
placed for patrons. For instance, we're thinking of restricting it to 5
total at one time for all patrons.
Has anyone on the list limited the number o
Hello Amy,
I have never set one consortium wide but I imagine it is no different that
setting one for an individual library.
What you are looking for is located in Admin-->Local Admin-->Hold Policies.
You can limit the total number of requests placed. I looked over the
settings and I believe
PINES has a consortium-wide limit of 50, and I believe it works the way
Jordan described.

Evegreen does inform the patron when the hold limit is reached and no
further holds are allowed until you drop below the limit. I have been
placing a lot of holds lately to fix records or assign parts so I've hit
the 50 limit often. As soon as even one hold is checked out to me I can
place anothe.

I appreciate everyone's

The "the code checks for this permission instead of seeing if Everything is
there" bug I haven't seen in at least three Evergreen releases (maybe
more). As Jason said, assigned org units / depth of permission is more
likely the culprit.

For fun, I tried adding a Consortial-depth EVERYTHING permission to a
patron account on a test system along with a workin
I limited holds for our patrons to 15 a couple of years ago. I do not recall
seeing a way to limit by the type of hold, but I wasn’t really looking for
that. I just wanted to stop people from putting an insane number of items on
hold and then having to tell them that they could only check out
Thanks to all for your responses! Much appreciated.
