Reminder: Do not override hold blocks

by SWAN Communications

Some libraries may need to temporarily adjust their hold policies to manage current conditions. Please remember to follow standard procedures when placing holds. Do not override any hold blocks as this will cause hold queue disruption. As libraries are facing challenges with staffing and potential closures, it is important to adhere to hold policies. Documentation on placing holds is available on the support site at https://support.swanlibraries.net/documentation/64692.
