Ok, I'll bite... So, what if the hold actually made it to the
destination on July 1, but the library closed before the patron could
get it?

I'm thinking it might be confusing if the patron checked their account
on July 1 and noticed that the held item is in transit to pickup
location, but later it suddenly disappears before making it.
