Prioritization of the libraries in a given pod
The Rapido lending request distribution algorithm does not allow the different libraries in a pod to be prioritised. This would be useful to ensure that in case of multiple items the most staffed libraries are given priority in the attribution of requests, and to prevent small libraries from being overwhelmed by lending requests.

Hello,
Thank you for this idea.
We have reviewed and determined that this functionality will not be added to the roadmap at this time. Current functionality support ordering pod priorities, load balancing within each pod, and additional pods can be created as needed by the community. I am closing this idea to release the votes back to the community.

Many thanks for suggesting this!

This would also be great for pods that include libraries in different countries, so libraries could prioritize libraries in their own country over international lenders to save on shipping costs.
