Placing Holds
Patrons may initiate hold requests on Maag Library materials.
Please Note: Holds prevent a patron from renewing the item.
When to Place a Hold
- A book is available for checkout.
- A desired book is checked out to another borrower. Patrons can also check the OhioLINK Catalog to see if another copy is available.
- The library will send an email notification once the item becomes available. The item will be on hold at the Library Services Desk.
How to Place a Hold
- In the MaagNET Catalog, click on the desired item.
- Click the "Request" button (located underneath the title) to initiate the hold request.
- Enter your name and YSU ID# (begins with "Y"). If the desired item is not needed after a certain date, enter that date. To complete request, click the "Submit" button.
- The requested material(s) will show in the next page.
- You will receive a YSU email when your item(s) is available for pickup. Patrons can monitor their requests and holds using their Library Account.
