HOW DO I…

 

REQUEST AN ITEM

Using the electronic catalog, narrow your choice of material by clicking on the blue underlined title until the computer displays just ONE title with the call numbers and locations of the particular item you wish to reserve.

At the top of the screen, click on the "Request" button.  Fill in your last name and your library barcode in the available fields.

Choose a location where you would like to pick up you material.  Click the "Submit" button.  When the return screen says your submission has been successful, you will receive a call or email to let you know when your item is ready for pick-up.

Students receive their cards at their school library.

Adults should bring a valid Michigan Driver's License or State Identification card to any library branch.

The staff at the circulation desk will issue a card. 

Replacement for lost cards are  $1.00.

Non-residents may purchase a library card that includes computer and borrowing privileges for $200.00 / year.  

Non-residents may use library materials in-house or use the computer for one hour /day at no charge with a valid photo ID.
