Good Morning,

After some more follow-up testing as to whether patrons see the "Hold Shelf
Delay" status,  EG OPAC View is not explicitly looking at the Hold Shelf
Delay status and resulting in a "blank" hold status while the item
(captured hold) is within the hold delay interval.

OPAC View for Hold Status Not Looking for Hold Shelf Delay Status

Thank You,
Erica
