How to Access Library Resources

Placing a Hold

With the patron empowerment features on MyEBSCO, you will be able to place a hold on library materials that are checked out by other patrons. Having a hold on an item means that once the item is brought back and checked in, you will be next in line to check it out! To place a hold on an item you find in EBSCO Discovery Service, click "Place Request" underneath the item's title. See below for an example:

Choose the "Requests" subfolder to view your holds. The material you requested will appear, along with your place in line for each item. See below for an example:
