Yes, you can place a hold on circulating books. Whether you want to be first in line for a book that is currently checked out or whether you want us to set one aside until you get there, you can place it on hold.

In the library catalog, click “Sign in” near the top, enter your college email address and password, click the title you want, then click "Request" in the record. Select Cerro Coso Library (IWV) as your location, and “Send Request.” You can also call or email us with your request.

We will let you know when the item is available for you to pick up, and it will be held at the front circulation desk for 7 days.

Items in reserve or reference collections cannot be requested or placed on hold, but are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Ask at the desk for more information.
