Bug Description
Currently in Evergreen, organizational units that have been closed can be marked "OPAC visible = false" so they don't show up in the OPAC. However, closed org units continue to be visible in the staff client, most notably in cataloging interfaces and in patron registration. I would not want to truly delete these libraries, but it would be desirable to be able to hide them completely from staff view. Possibly a "deleted" flag on the actor.org_unit object would suffice for this?

I wonder if this should be made more generic. There is already a wishlist item along this same line for copy locations, and I imagine if we looked hard enough there may be a couple other things that are important enough to keep, but not show in the client any longer. If a developer gets "in the groove" maybe it would be quicker to knock out all of the related changes than it would be to change ous now, locations later, and then possibly other types?
