Item specific (not volume specific) holds
We understand that we are already supposed to be able to place volume level holds on materials. (It's not working for us, even when we have the volume info entered correctly, so we have reported it as a bug.) However, our staff and patrons would also like the ability for patrons to be able to place item level holds when there is NO volume info entered and the record is NOT a periodical or other serial.

Our bug is that for a record such as one pictured in the screenshot where there IS volume info entered in the item record and the bib. record IS cataloged as a Serial, it still never prompts the user to select which volume they want, regardless of which Place Hold button is used.

We just ran into this with volumes and holding from the default record on Vega and not clicking within the Bib Record to then select each volume directly. I assume this is exactly what you are referring to Margaret?
Someone clicks "place hold" on the default DVD record within Vega. It allows them to select which volume. If they click it again then they are rejected. If they expand the item and click place hold then they can click each volume there and place a hold on it. That seems like a bug.
