Requesting Library Materials be sent to Extended Ed Sites via WEBCATalog

SHASTA COLLEGE LIBRARY
Placing a Hold for Checked-Out Items to be sent to Extended Ed. Sites

To qualify for this service, you must be enrolled in an Extended Education class.
NOTE: Material can only be sent to the Burney, Red Bluff, or Weaverville sites.

If a book is currently checked out, you may place hold on it. When the book is returned, it can be sent to the Burney, Red Bluff,
or Weaverville site for you to pick up. You will receive a message through “Review My Account” in the “My Account” option of the
Library Catalog informing you when the material is available. You will also receive an email message and/or a notice by regular mail.

Before a book can be delivered to your Extended Ed. site, you must contact your site secretary
confirming that you still want the material sent. The secretary will notify the Library.

Remember Library policy: 5 holds and 5 book checkout limit per library user.
No checkouts to persons who owe fines or have overdue materials.

To place a HOLD for an item:

Find the item in the Library Catalog,
Click on the "Details” button to the left of the item listing so that you have a detailed display of the item you want to request. If there are multiple volumes or copies, make sure the one you want is displayed. The system will then remember this item when you place the hold.
Check the LOCATION listing for the item. The LOCATION must say CHECKEDOUT.

If the location is not CHECKEDOUT, use: Requesting Library Materials
to have item sent to the Burney, Red Bluff, or Weaverville Sites.

Continue placing HOLD by:

Clicking on the “Place Hold” to the left of the item information. Then…
Fill in either “user ID” (barcode # on the back of your library card w/out spaces). Then...
Fill in PIN# (birth month and day e.g. Oct. 9 would be 1009). Then…
Click on the “Place Hold” button.
The system remembers the last item displayed when you place the hold.
The screen will display the message “Hold Placed: Title, author and location number”.
NOTE: Sorry, Periodicals, Reference, and Reserves are not HOLDable.

To check on the status of your HOLD:

Select “My Account” from the gray bar near the top of the Search/Home page.
Select “Review My Account”.
Type in your "user ID." Enter your PIN #.
Click on “Display User Information.”
Scroll down to the HOLD information to check on the current status of your hold.
You may also cancel a HOLD by going to “Review My Account.”

Reply immediately to your site secretary when you are notified with an account message, email, or regular mail
that material is available. In your reply, you must identify yourself by name and give site location.
Without your response, material will not be sent to your Extended Ed. site.
