Library Online

Placing Holds

You can place a hold on items by using the Library Catalogue.

 

You will need your Library ID from you Campus Card and your Library PIN:


  1. Log in to the start screen of the Library Catalogue with your 10-digit ID number and your PIN.
  2. Find the item you require and select the Details screen, check when the item/s are due for return and which campus stocks them, then select Place Hold.
  3. The next screen asks you to select the campus you wish to collect the hold from; choose the correct campus and select Place Hold.

You can place holds on up to 5 items at a time. 

Please note: Students and staff cannot place holds on Short Loan or Special Collection items and students cannot place holds on Restricted Audio-Visual items.  Holds placed on these items will be cancelled.

Check your place in the queue

If the item has been placed on hold by other users, you can check your place in the queue by checking your Library account via the Self Service option on the Library Catalogue.
