Please check that your colleagues who work with your library's hold shelf are aware of the workflow discussed in this post.
This reminder was also sent via email to the I-Share Liaisions, Resource Sharing interest group, and Public Services interest group on 8/23/2021.

What is the task?: When an item expires on your library’s hold shelf, or, the requesting patron states they no longer want an item they had requested before it expires, library staff must follow the transit workflow in Alma to return the item to its owning library.
