Hi Jennifer,

Saving checkout and holds history is something that each patron must turn
on if they want it.  Staff cannot see the histories, only the patron can
and they must be logged in to do so.  Neither setting can be made
retroactive, only items that are checked out or placed on hold *after* the
settings are turned on will be captured.  It's an amazingly useful feature
and we encourage our patrons who read a lot to use it.

Thanks,
Lise
