When patrons place a hold through the Opac the program defaults to a title hold. That makes sense to me but . here is our problem and I am wondering if we have a settings issue. The hold is put on the first title that becomes available within the consortium, no matter where it is, even if the patron's home branch owns a copy. Here's what we would like to happen - the hold first goes to the patron home branch if a copy is available; if the home branch doesn't own a copy then the program looks for an available copy in our regional library. If a copy is not found within our region only then would the request go out to the consortium.
