Find Out Location of "Hold Shelf" Item

Here's two ways to find out the location of an item with a status of "hold shelf". Neither is very convenient, but they work.

Method 1

• F2 - Search for the item by title or barcode.
• Click Show Copies
• Click on the copy with the "hold shelf" status
• Send it to Copy/Item List (F10)
• Click Edit to open the item record, go down to where it says "Out to Borrower No."
• Look up the borrower# in circ and find out where the item is being held from their Blocks screen.

Method 2 (more cumbersome if there's a lot of copies with Hold Shelf status)

• F2 - Search for the item by title or barcode.
• Go to Request - View Title Request List
• Click on an item with "hold shelf" status
• Click Borrower Requests
• Look to see if that item matches the specific item barcode you're looking for.
• If not, go to another "hold shelf" item in the list and check that one's Borrower Requests.
