Place a Hold

In the event we don't have an item on our shelves, there is a waiting list, or you're in a rush and you'd just like to have your books waiting for you at the Circulation Desk, follow these steps to place requests for an item:
  • To reserve an item, first search our catalog for the item (opens in a new window).
  • Once you've found the title you're looking for click the "Request It" button to the right of the title.
  • Enter your library card number, located on the back of your library card.
  • Next enter your PIN.  
    • The first time you go into "My Account," you will be asked to create your own Personal Identification number (PIN). You will be asked to re-enter the PIN to confirm it.
    • If you have forgotten you PIN, click "Forgot Your Pin" and a message will be sent to the email address we have on file for you, with a link to reset your PIN.
  • Click on "Login."
  • Once you click the "Submit" button, your reserve has been placed and we will contact you when the item is ready for pickup.​
