The new feature that restricts editing items to owning or group library is
preventing staff from performing batch item modifications to any item,
regardless of owning library, something they could do prior to this addition. A
new permission, "Edit any item including items that would otherwise be
restricted (edit_any_items)", was added to allow users to edit any item
regardless of the user and items' home libraries, but an equivalent permission
for the Batch Item Modification Tool was not created. Either extend the new
edit_any_item permission to include persons with the existing "Perform batch
modification of items (items_batchmod)" permission or create a new permission
that is the equivalent of "edit_any_item" for the Batch Modification Tool.
