The purpose of a hold is to ultimately get an item to a user. There are different "levels" or types of hold requests: title, volume, item, and "meta-record". By default, the public catalog accessible to patrons only offers title level holds (and meta-record holds), while the staff catalog offers all hold types. Ignoring for a moment any library specified hold rules (or exceptions, permissibility checks, etc.), title level holds can be fulfilled with any item attached to a volume on the specific bib record for the title being targeted. Volume level holds can be fulfilled only with items attached to the specified volume (library+call number combination) being targeted. Item level holds can only be fulfilled with the specific barcoded item being targeted. A meta-record hold is used if the user uses the Advanced Hold Options for alternate formats when placing the hold; an item belonging to any record from within a group of records (multiple formats and editions for the same "conceptual" title, similar to what you can do with FRBR) can be used to fulfill the hold, subject to any format restrictions selected and a language restriction based on the language of the title that was used as the entry-point for placing the hold. | The purpose of a hold is to ultimately get an item to a user.
