One reason could be because it is a new item. Normally new items that haven’t gone down on the shelf yet are put into a status called “In Processing”. This ensures that staff and you know that it is upstairs getting processed.
However if the item has a hold on it we don’t put the item into this status because this may compromise your hold information.
So if you see this next time you are looking for a new item you have a hold on, it could be because of this.
If the item you have on hold isn’t a new book please contact us on 03-211 1444 or send us an email at help@ilibrary.co.nz and we will try to find out what has happened.
