+Serial Control: Set Special Statuses
+====================================
+The Serial Control interface prevents direct editing of serial item statuses
+for data integrity reasons. As an alternative to direct control, the interface
+now offers new menu options for setting items to 'claimed', 'not held', and
+'not published'. Note that these statuses are still currently useful for
+reporting and display purposes only.
