You'll essentially be set up with another "lesser" branch called a Service
Outlet. They are much more limited than an actual branch, but do allow for
patrons to choose them as a hold pickup location. We have 5 locations, plus
4 locker service outlets, so our library district has 9 options for hold
pickups (not including our resource sharing partners in our consortium).
