Reduction in Number of Holds Requests

Effective February 2, 2009 the number of holds requests patrons may have on their library cards will be reduced from 20 to 10. This action has been taken due to concerns about the state budget for the remainder of FY09 and the upcoming FY10.

This limit will not affect current holds requests.

New requests will not be accepted until there are fewer than 10 on the card.
