Signed, Sealed, Delivered: Hold Targeter Geolocation Follow-up

In previous conference sessions, I presented about work that NC Cardinal was undertaking to implement geo-location services into Evergreen’s hold targeter. Since that time, we’ve rolled the code out into our production environment, entered in all of the new data that was required, and enabled the feature across the consortium. All of our holds are now having their potential targets chosen based on their physical distance from their pickup libraries and not by random chance. I would like to follow up on the effects that we’ve seen, our implementation process, and changes that needed to be made after reviewing our resource sharing process.
