Items that go on reserve are typically updated with both a temporary location and a temporary loan type. When taking items off reserve, the temporary location and temporary loan type are removed. At the moment bulk edit is primarily used to take items off reserve.

Will people make list of barcodes to go on reserve or only keep doing for going off?
