Bug Description
This isn't actually a bug, but a question about whether or not this is the most desired behavior or not: When using Item Status > Request Items to place a hold, the hold record ignores the user's hold notification preference defaults and does not store any notification settings.
Personally, I would prefer it to store my default preferences for the hold settings rather than to store nothing. I think the behavior would be more consistent and predictable that way, and as a staff person, if I didn't want to be notified when holds came in, I wouldn't have those settings in my default preferences in the first place. I've also talked to several PINES library staff who were confused as to why the settings were stored differently depending on which screen they placed their holds from.
Marking this as a Wish List for further discussion.
