Not as far as the rules of Koha operations go, if that's what you mean. > Clients have reminded me that taking holds on high-demand titles > like upcoming release DVD's is their most important reserves operation. The > number of reserves can then be used to influence the number of items (or > additional items) purchased. What we end up doing is creating a single "dummy" item to attach to on-order titles, one with no barcode. That enables our patrons to place holds. If you let patrons place holds on titles with no items, how do you prevent them from mistakenly placing holds on titles which will never have items, like electronic resources? I suppose a restricted item type would do it. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org _______________________________________________ Koha-patches mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-patches
