Hi all,

In our Evergreen consortium, we are currently addressing an issue with the
display of the library branch in the hold pickup location list.

Specifically, the issue concerns a branch in a school library system. The
system consists of two branches, one of which is used as an in-house
library exclusively for the needs of school teachers and, as such, is
inaccessible to common library patrons and has no operating hours. The
branch is, however, set as OPAC visible so that patrons can request books
from it if necessary.
The problem is that the library is visible for more than just searching the
catalog. When a patron is placing a hold, it is also displayed in the list
of library hold pickup locations, although no hold can be picked up at this
specific branch.
For the sake of completeness I should probably point out that the system
handles holds using the first-in, first-out principle rather than having
any complex hold policies.

Is there any way to hide this branch in the list of pickup locations that
patrons can see when they are placing a hold?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Eva
