Re-Page Item Level Holds
Our library would like to have pages for item-level holds repeat until they are filled. Currently, the only way to achieve this is by checking the "Do Not Clear" checkbox when running the item paging list each day. However, staff have to remember to toggle this setting every time they run the list, and if they forget, all previous pages will be lost and can't be restored the next time they run the list.
We'd like a way to have item pages persist by default.

It is odd that the bib level holds continue to appear on the notices for as long as the library notice cycle setting, but the item level holds do not.

Staff always forget about not clearing the job, which you just shouldn't have to think about/do. If an item doesn't change from being on hold to some other status, and is available, it should show up on the paging list until that status changes.

Yes, they're copy specific holds, but they're placed for a reason. We'd like to see this as well. Remain on the list until they're filled or marked missing or some other status that would prevent fulfillment.

This would be great at my library!
