We have recently upgraded from Evergreen 3.1 to 3.3 and implemented a complete revamp of our permission structure to include a strict requirement that anyone who creates/deletes items or bibs must pass cataloging assessments. However, we have found that staff can create new volume/call# and item records with only the permissions granted to Circulator (and inherited from Evergreen Staff): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E9FNba6g83Reez9Lqi5sycjKBRWROZlvn5edHD-KC8Q/edit?usp=sharing

Those permissions definitely do not include CREATE_VOLUME or CREATE_COPY, which should be the permissions checked before Evergreen permits a user to create a new item or call# record, right? I don't see any other permissions that should supersede those, but am I missing something?

Here is the workflow I followed:
1. Log into web staff client with staff login account assigned to Circulator
2. Go to Cataloging>Retrieve bib Record by TCN and enter 11173473
3. Click on Add Holdings
4. Add barcode, change a few fields
5. Click Save & Exit (also able to click on Store Selected and Save & Exit from Completed Items tab)

I added new item, barcode testcirc1 here in dev database (Evergreen 3.1) for TCN

11173473: http://devappalachian.nccardinal.org/eg/opac/record/11173473?locg=1

I added new item, barcode testcirc here in next for TCN

11173473: https://nextappalachian.nccardinal.org/eg/opac/record/11173473?locg=126

This is an extremely worrisome issue for us, as we do not want staff to be able to create item or call number records without passing our cataloging assessments and being assigned to the cataloging permission groups with have CREATE_VOLUME or CREATE_COPY.
