Bug Description

When a Staff create a Holds Group, that Hold Group is not viewable except by that Staff member or staff with Super_User permissions. They are not viewable to anyone else. Staff are expecting to be able to view various hold groups for their system.

For additional Staff to add members to a hold Group, the staff need to know the Hold Group id to be able to pull up the hold group in the Current Users tab, they cannot just select the Hold group.

As to this, the Holds Groups do not populate in the Add to Bucket drop down in the Patron search, unless they created the Holds Group.

It would make much more sense if the hold groups worked in the way the permissions regarding editing patrons and items do. In order for hold groups to function most efficiently, all staff should be able to view and edit the group, since there is never just one designated person who works at the front desk. The permission should be at either the library or system/local consortium level depending on how each organization functions.
