If a library book that you want is checked out to someone else, you may place a hold on it. This ensures that you will be notified when the item becomes available.
Holds may be placed through the following steps:
- Search for the title in the library homepage search box, then click on the title.
- Click on "Sign in" under "Get It".
- Then click on "Reserve this Item" (see below).
- Enter you pick up location and other information, and click on "Send Request".
When your hold is ready for pick-up, you will be noticed by email. Please note email notices will be sent to your George Brown Student email account. Be sure to check it regularly. Items from the regular collection will be held for you at the Circulation/Help Desk for 7 days. *7 day loan items will be held for you at the Circulation/Help Desk for 3 days.
Please note that not all items are holdable. If you do not see the "Request: Reserve this item" link after signing in, then that particular item is not holdable. Your textbooks (items on Reserves or in Kiosks) are not holdable.
