New Search Limit for Manage Holds
We're currently dealing with a known issue in Sierra 6.2, where volume holds aren't being added to paging lists. Having discovered it on our end fairly recently, we've asked staff to continue running their paging lists for other items, but use the Manage Holds function to find & fill volume requests.
The problem is that the current search retrieves such a high number of items. And while the search results display counts of the title number of holds, & the total number of bib, volume, & item level holds, you cannot currently limit them & make the Manage Holds report more manageable, allowing staff to focus.
We'd like to see additional options added to the "Special Limits" category, giving staff the ability to refine their search to focus specifically on bib, volume or item requests.
Beyond our use of it in this particular circumstance, these new limits would make for another way of collection maintenance. Perhaps all of the copies of disc 4 of Season 3 of Gilmore Girls are unavailable. New limits could make issues like those more readily apparent.
