 Shelving Locations (formerly known as Copy Locations) are used to identify where an item is located within a branch (for example, Reference or Stacks or AV) and also to set certain properties for all items within the shelving location (for example, holdability). They can be set at either the System or Branch level. System-level shelving locations will be available to all libraries in the system. Branch-level shelving locations are only available to the individual branch. The "PINES" shelving locations are unavailable, as they are administered by PINES/GPLS staff.  Shelving Locations (formerly known as Copy Locations) are used to identify where an item is located within a branch (for example, Reference or Stacks or AV) and also to set certain properties for all items within the shelving location (for example, holdability).

-<note>Even if all branches in a system use the same set of shelving locations, you may wish to set them on a per-branch basis rather than at the system level. This will allow you to change the properties of one branch's shelving location independently of the other branches' shelving locations. For example, if one branch is undergoing renovations but is not entirely closed to the public, certain shelving locations may be marked not-holdable temporarily.</note>+<note>Even if all branches in a system use the same set of shelving locations, you may wish to set them on a per-branch basis rather than at the system level.
