This release contains several bug fixes improving on Evergreen 2.11.3.

A fix to avoid fetching and creating EDI message entries that the system cannot parse.
A fix to prevent staff users from marking a long overdue item as lost so that the patron will not be billed twice for the same item.
A fix to the link that is used on the catalog’s Library Info page so that links with anchors can be successfully retrieved.
A replacement for the blank fallback image used when the catalog cannot retrieve an added content book cover.
An EDI fix that prevents EDI fetcher from crashing when the vendor supplies a zero-length file.
A fix to an issue where adjusting a bill to zero for a current checkout prematurely closes the transaction.
A fix to encoding problems in MODS output. These problems caused issues when using Zotero with records in the catalog.
A fix to Evergreen self-check to accept the user name value when a barcode regex has been configured for the system.
A fix to duplicate name checking in the patron registration screen so that clicking the "Found x patron(s) with same name" link will retrieve potential duplicate inactive patrons.
A fix to the bower install step used when installing the web staff client.
A fix that marks a hold as fulfilled when staff check out a hold- captured item for a hold whose expire time is in the past.
A change to the acquisitions funding source funds drop down menu so that the menu will now only display active funds and will also display the year alongside the fund.
A fix to a problem where the Current Bills tab of the patron record showed duplicate charges when a check in was done from the Items Out tab.
A fix that hides the option to add to My Lists from the staff client since this functionality does not work as expected in the staff client.
A change to the fund year selectors in acq interfaces so that the years are sorted in descending order.
A fix to a billing issue where transactions were not re-opened after they acquired a non-zero balance at check in.
A change to the default pickup library when staff place a hold. The place hold screen will now default to the preferred pickup location for the patron. If the patron does not have a preferred pickup location, it will default to the patron’s home library.
The ability to skip the XUL staff client build when in make_release.
A fix that silences a log warning that appears for every checkout where a hard due date is not used.
