This feature has two main parts, patron blocking by number of lost items and include lost items as items out. A group penalty threshold will be added for lost items. This will restrict patrons who have lost too many items. The inclusion of lost items as items out will be an optional setting, like claims returned items. This will allow libraries to set what type of item statuses count toward the total items out. This will also include a slight modification to the layout on the patron page to better represent items out.

There are two main deliverable items that correspond with the two parts of this feature. The first deliverable is a group penalty threshold for the number of lost items. Libraries are able to modify this setting through the Group Penalty Thresholds page. The second deliverable is the ability to choose if lost items are counted as items out, like Claimed Returned items. The inclusion or exclusion for lost items is set on the Library Settings Editor page.
