Placing Holds

You can place a hold on items that are currently checked-out by other library members. You will receive an email notification when your requested item has become available, or if library staff need further information from you.

1. Click on the entry page of the catalogue item you want to hold.
2. Click “Place Hold” under Access Options. You will be redirected to a “Submit a Place Hold Request” form. If you are not currently logged-in, you will be asked to first log-in to your account.
3. Complete the form with your preferences, and click “Submit” to place your request.

Items not eligible for place hold

You may not be able to place holds on all items. When this is the case, the “Submit a Place Hold Request” form won’t submit. Contact the Dalton McCaughey Library directly with your request instead, and we will assist you.

Accessing all of your place holds

All of your place holds are listed under the “Requests” tab in your account.

Cancelling holds

You can cancel a hold from your account at any time.

• Click “My Account”
• Select “Requests” for a list of your requested catalogue items.
• Click “Cancel request” for each item you no longer want.
