I don't have an answer; but we agree with you wholeheartedly. This and
the fact that holds show up as "Available" in the OPAC unless
checked out are two of the serious issues about holds that need to be
addressed.<br><br>

The "Holds Awaiting Pickup" and "Holds to Pull"
circulation reports do not show a list of items that are placed by
patrons from home that are already available in the library. The
"Holds Awaiting Pickup" report does seem to show a list of
items if they have been on hold while the item was checked out to another
patron and that patron just check it back in. <br><br>
The lack of "Holds to Pull" reporting is an important issue
because librarians need to know what items need to be pulled off the
shelf when a patron places a hold - even if the item is already
available.<br><br>
I have my preferences set to:<br><br>
AllowOnShelfHolds: ON<br><br>
emailLibrarianWhenHoldsPlaced: ON (though this does not work
either)<br><br>
Any thoughts on how to fix this this? Is there a job that needs to be
running? Am I just missing something?<br>
