Step Two:  The Catalog and You

With your current library card and a PIN (if you don't have one, please ask for one at the library), you can access your own account to look up library books and materials, place holds on items you'd like and renew items you've already checked out. There are a few exceptions to the rule which you should know about right up front:

  If someone has placed a hold on a item you wish to renew, you won't be able to request this feature at this time.

  If you want to renew books or materials that are late, you may not be able to.

  You must be 18 years of age or older to check out DVDs and videos. 

  Remember that your library is now Statewide - this means you can check out books in one County and return them in another!


First: We'll begin with how to log into and review your account.
