New Catalog Feature: Fewer Clicks While Holding Items
When searching the catalog and for items, once you find items to select, you will now see an option on the right hand side under "Find It" called "One Click Hold".
When you click on this, you will place the hold on the item and bypass the usual steps of being able to choose a pickup library, change the activation date, along with the next screen that appears telling you how many active holds already on the title and if you want to continue.
Using this new optional method the activation date is automatically set as the day the hold is placed and the pickup library is automatically the NBPL (or your BLS registered at library).
