Reserves

If an item has been checked out or is located in another library, you can place a Hold on the item, and it will be reserved & delivered to the library for you free of charge. You can place a hold by calling the library or by giving your request to a staff member at the circulation desk.

Holds can also be placed by using a computer in the library or your home or office by connecting to the library  catalog.

     1. Click on the View box next to the title.

     2. On the item's Full View from Catalog screen, click on the Hold icon (a hand with the  word "Hold" below it).

     3. Enter your 14-digit library card number and your PIN. 
         Your PIN is the last four digits of your library card number if you are not already logged in. 

     4. Select the library where you would like the item sent.

     5. Click on Place Hold. 

     6. Click on OK to confirm your hold after your title appears in the blue box

    .

Note: With HAL, patrons now have the ability to remotely place holds for "On Shelf" items. The possibility will exist that a patron in the library could pick the remotely requested item off the shelf before a staff member is able to retrieve the item for the hold. We regret this inconvenience. 

You may cancel a hold by going to My Account, clicking Review Account, selecting the checkbox for each item to be cancelled, and clicking on Cancel Selected Holds.
