Bug Description
Suggested changes based on feedback from a usability study done by Mercer University:
The user groups found the hold placement form confusing - there are a lot of fields and they didn't necessarily understand all of them right away. In addition, none of the user groups even noticed the Advanced Hold Options. We should consider alternative options for the page layout - perhaps break the fields up into visual / color-coded blocks and add on-screen guidance?
1. Where do you want to pick this item up?
2. How do you want us to contact you when it is ready for you to pick up?
3. Do you want to receive this as soon as possible, or do you want to receive it later?
(this is a difficult concept to convey - need to consider how to make it clear)
4. If there are other editions or formats of this title available, do you have a preference?
(this is a difficult concept to convey - need to consider how to make it clear)
5. Do you need multiple copies?
(show only if user has appropriate permissions)
