Hi Grand,

I believe that's referring to not deleting a bib record when all attached  
items/call-numbers are being deleted?

If so, you can set an org_unit setting called "cat.bib.keep_on_empty".   
For now, you'll have to do that directly in the database.

Something to the effect of:

insert into actor.org_unit_setting (org_unit, name, value) values (1,  
'cat.bib.keep_on_empty', 1);

That will apply the setting globally, if "top" of your org_unit hierarchy  
has an ID of 1.

You can also tell the system to alert the staff when this occurs with the  
"cat.bib.alert_on_empty" setting.

Hope this helps,

-b
