Hi In our library we use Koha 21.05.01 - we want to disable holds completely. Koha system preference "maxreserves" ist set to 0. In Koha menu "Administration > Circulation and fines rules" there is only one rule, with the following settings: * Holds allowed (total): 0 * Holds allowed (daily): 0 * Holds per record (count): 0 * On shelf holds allowed: If all unavailable (other possibilities are: Yes / If any unavailable) * OPAC item level holds: Don't allow With all these settings it is still possible to go to a record with an item attached to it and then place a hold, both in staff client and OPAC! There is no warning or error when trying to do so. How is it possible to disable holds completely in Koha? Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.

Hi MIchael Don't know from configuration side but it might be possible to use JQuery to hide hold buttons/menus.

No 'reserve' or 'hold' mentioned in the syspref name. We are so mean. El mar, 9 nov 2021 a las 17:33, Katrin Fischer (<katrin.fischer.83@web.de>) escribió:

Hi Katrin
it's even easier using the RequestOnOpac system preference :)
Thanks so much for mentioning this! There are dozens of preferences regarding holds in Koha menu "Administration > Circulation > Holds policy" but the one that is really important sits in Koha menu "Administration > OPAC > Features > RequestOnOpac"... And of course, this will only disable placing holds in the OPAC, but not in the staff client... but well, we'll live with that...

Hi Michael. You could remove the permissions for the staff member(s): 1. Go to *Patrons > [search or browse for staff member] > More > Set permissions* 2. Change permissions - the holds ones are under *Place and modify holds for patrons* Hope that helpsl.
