Rapido currently considers a title available for request if it is part of a configured participating set.

When a borrowing mediation rule is configured with parameter ownership + availability, borrowing requests are intercepted if the IZ owns the title and that its related item is available. The problem is that requests are intercepted even when items do not have a loanable policy in the IZ in question (e.g. on-site use only). Indeed, the availability parameter of the rule considers "item in place", and not the presence of an item in any of the Rapido participating sets.

We would like the borrowing mediation rules to have a new parameter in which we could exclude item policies. This would prevent Rapido requests to be intercepted in such cases, hence allowing them to be automatically forwarded to a proper lending library.

Thank you very much in advance!
