You could mark them damaged for the duration of the program. Then run through 
check-in when no longer needed to clear the "damaged" flag.
While in damage status, would not show available in the catalog.

Subject: [Evergreen-general] Best Practices Question


Hi,

  I was wondering what best practices are for the following scenario: a youth 
services librarian is preparing for a program and needs to put aside 10 books 
about cats. They don’t want the books to appear on a pullist while they have 
them. We don’t want them to check the books out because it would generate a 
false circulation statistic. We advise them to place a holds on the books they 
need, but is there a better way to take these books out of circulation without 
generating a false statistic?

Thank you,

Scott
