+Auto Override Patron Hold Events
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In previous versions of Evergreen, you can assign patrons a permission that
+enables them to manually override a failed hold. In version 2.3, when a patron
+places a hold in the OPAC that fails, and the patron has the permission to
+override the failed hold, a new org unit setting automatically overrides the
+failed hold rather than requiring the patron to manually override the hold.
+
+In version 2.3, a new org unit setting exists so that the hold override occurs
+automatically, and the patron does not have to choose to override it. To enable
+this org unit setting:
+
+. Click *Admin -> Local Administration ->Library Settings Editor*.
+. Scroll or search to find _Auto-Override Permitted Hold Blocks (Patrons)_.
+. Set the value to _True_.
+
+*Use Case*
+
+A patron has placed a hold in the OPAC on a title that he has currently checked
+out. The patron permission group contains the permission,
+_HOLD_ITEM_CHECKED_OUT.override_. In versions prior to 2.3, a hold
+failure message appears, and the patron must click _Submit_ to override the hold.
