Do edit fisrt your catalog entry, search the title, %%% for all the titles, 
then edit it.
Once you edit it, you are able now to add, edit, delete holdings 
information, like call-number, location, type, barcode, etc.

You should open your PhpMyLibrary/polerio/module/config/conf.php for 
assigning values in your location.
ex, from my example, CSWCD has a an id of 1

The following are taken from the line 279-273 of phpmylibrary conf.php 
file..

/*
* Library Location. Meaning Libraries with which user will borrow
* his/her book. The Location of that library.
* When you add accession number the program gives you some the
* default value which is 1, change it if you want.
*/
$library_type[1][1] = 'College of Social Work and Development Lbrary';
$library_type[1][2] = 'CSWCD';
$library_type[1][3] = '1/F Some Hall, Atplace St.';
$library_type[1][4] = '0329876543';

$library_type[2][1] = 'Library of Congress';
$library_type[2][2] = 'LC';
$library_type[2][3] = 'Library of Congress USA';
$library_type[2][4] = '123456789';


This is the library definition parameters.

Example you want to add, holdings info in your bibliographic record, first 
edit it,
at the top, you can add, or edit holdings info.
On the location put a value of 1 for CSWCD, 2 for LC, . . . up to [n] 
library.
Thus you can make

$library_type[3][1] = Ou Library';
$library_type[3][2] = 'OL';
$library_type[3][3] = 'some locatio, an address perhaps';
$library_type[3][4] = 'contact number;

On the Call number, you can put any characters in it compare to Location 
wherein you put only numbers from
1 to [n] depending upon the locations of your library.

Please go to phpmylibrary demo website for a chance to practice this feature 
online. Add, edit, delete holdings in there to test it. 
http://phpmylibrary.sourceforge.net/html/modules/PhpMyLibrary, login as 
username admin and password admin.

Thanks you

Polerio
