Ready Holds Expire in

A ready hold is the length of time an item is held by the library once a copy becomes available.

Enter the number of days the copy will be held for the patron to pick it up.

Note: Closed calendar dates are counted in the calculation process. However, if the expiration date will fall on a day marked as closed, it moves to the next open date. For example, if the expiration is on day 5 and that is marked as closed, Destiny uses the next open date.

If the patron does not pick up the book in time, the hold expires.

When a ready hold expires, Destiny makes it available for the next patron in the queue.
