Allow self-check out of virtual items using Sierra API
Update the Sierra API to allow self-check out of virtual items. We use Bibliocommons app and our customers cannot use the self-checkout feature to check out INN-Reach items.
This idea will be reviewed by the product management team for possible inclusion in a future release.

It would be really nice to allow patrons to check out INN-Reach items through our Communico app when they take them off of the hold shelf. Patrons don't understand that you can 't check out everything that way.

We're in the same boat in Cincinnati, & we draw in INN-Reach items from two different sources (SearchOhio & OhioLink). Staff at our tech services/distribution center location rely exclusively on the mobile app to check out requested items they have sent there (it's a staff only pickup location for the roughly 50 staff who work there), but they have to choose a different pickup location for INN-Reach requests, because the app cannot be used to borrow those.
