How to request books
To request an item through the library's website, search for the item
you want and click "Request First Available Copy." You will need your
library card number and your PIN. If you are unsure what your PIN is,
ask a librarian. New cardholders may not reserve on-line until one week
after their card is issued.
How to use
"My Account"
Your library user account (called "My
Account" and located at the top of the screen after you click
search for books and select a library) is a collection of information specific to you. It
includes your user profile, items you have currently checked out, the
status of any holds you have placed or hold requests that are pending,
fines or other blocks to your library account, and any saved lists.
You
need a Personal Identification Number (PIN before you can log into My Account. To keep your information
private, only you and library staff can access your account with your
Personal Identification Number (PIN). If you're unsure what your PIN is,
ask a librarian.
