Set max limit of holds by material type
Being able to set a max limit on the number of holds by material type (or Collection) would be beneficial for items that are perpetually popular but additional copies cannot be purchased.
I.e. Museum passes - 500 bib level holds limit
this would also help to ensure hold request does not lapse due to long wait times

That's a good question. Not sure I have a great answer.
I was thinking this wouldn't be something that needs to be applied to all material types but could be turned on by material type if desired.
The majority of Bibs have 1 material type in my experience, perhaps if a bib has multiple material types, the hold limit does not take effect. -

How would you propose that bibs that have multiple items with different material types be handled?
