<div class="moz-cite-prefix">For a multi-branch system, Holds Queue
first looks for an item already at the pickup branch and puts the
hold in that branch's queue (possibly even jumping priority order
if LocalHoldsPriority), or if there isn't one already at the
pickup branch depending on prefs it either looks for the cheapest
available item according to the Transport Cost Matrix if
UseTransportCostMatrix, or chooses the first branch listed in
StaticHoldsQueueWeight with an available item if
StaticHoldsQueueWeight and not RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, or
chooses a random branch from those listed in
StaticHoldsQueueWeight with an available item if
StaticHoldsQueueWeight and RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, or chooses a
random branch from all branches with an available item if not
StaticHoldsQueueWeight and RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, or if you
mess your prefs up badly enough with not StaticHoldsQueueWeight
and not RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, chooses the
alphabetically-first branch with an available item, thus piling
all the load on poor Aaron Aardvark Library, in each case possibly
checking whether that branch is open or closed that day if
HoldsQueueSkipClosed, and puts the hold in whatever branch's queue
falls out of that.</div>
