Hi Laura,

Checkin captures a hold or transit. So the last place it was checked in is
where the transit or hold was captured.  What is the status of the book? If
it got to your holds shelf then staff would have made a mistake by not
receiving it (checking it in) at your library. It probably had a holds slip
on it so staff put it on the holds shelf. This is what I would assume at my
library.
