Disabling checkout button for specific books

Hi, We are changing the status of some books to "In-Library Use Only" but would like to also be able to disable the checkout button for those books while leaving the majority of the collection available to check out. Is there a way to do that? Thanks!

Hi PJGVollumLibrary,

Yes! When you create a custom lending status from the Check in/out page (https://www.librarycat.org/admin/checkinout), just make sure that you select the option to mark the record as unavailable for that "In-Library Use Only" status and we'll automatically remove the "Check out" and "Place hold" buttons from the records that have the status.
