There is a related library setting: Behind Desk pickup supported. Is  
it set up to TRUE?


Quoting "Dale, Dawn" <ddale at georgialibraries.org>:

> In Evergreen 2/3/4 there is an option to click for "Hold is behind   
> circ desk" in the Edit Patron screen. The place I am referring to is  
>  the check box that would say that the patron wants you to hold the   
> book behind the desk.
>
> We have one library in our system that is experimenting with   
> self-service holds. We went into the Branch Manager?s account and   
> put a check in that box to state that the patron wants his hold held  
>  behind the desk. Then he went and placed a hold, then pulled the   
> hold and captured it. There was no indication on the slip that   
> alerted the staff to put the hold behind the desk for the patron.
>
> Does anyone know what checking that box on the Edit Patron screen   
> does, exactly?
