Thanks, Liz. That was it exactly. We don't have the all/all default setup.

I suspect that you have an incorrectly set default rule in your circ and fine rules, see this section of the manual, paying special attention to the section marked *Important*:

The basic gist: every library must have a default-default rule set up, go ahead and add a new one if you're not sure.

There is also a system preference for "maxreserves" which should be defaulted to 50, but you may want to make sure that it's not set to 0. It's under "Patrons" in the system preferences.

When a patron tries to place a hold from the OPAC, they receive a message "Sorry, none of these items can be placed on hold." When staff tries to place a hold for the same, a message pops up "CANNOT PLACE HOLD Too many holds..." We can then click through, but not in the OPAC. When you check the holds for the patron, the record shows no holds. These are all items on which folks should be able to place holds.

Is this one of those deals where we need to change our settings? If so, where and how?

Thanks.

Jim
