Could setting the following two library settings achieve what you want?
- Delete volume with last copy - TRUE
- Retain empty bib records - FALSE
We use these settings in our consortium so that when the last copy on a record is deleted, the bib is deleted also.
Bibliographic records can't be deleted when call numbers(volumes) are still attached, and call numbers can't be deleted with items still attached.
With the library settings set as above, deleting the last item on a call number will delete the call number. If there are no other holdings, the bib record will be deleted also.
