The Phoenix Public Library provides cardholders full access to the circulating collection. Library cardholders may place holds on all circulating items by searching the online catalog and selecting the "Place a Hold" button next to the item. Library cardholders may place holds on all circulating materials per the requirements below:

• Number of Holds (at any one time): 3
• The Library card used to place the hold is required to check the item out.

If you are unable to find the book on the shelf, ask at the reference desk and a librarian may be able to locate the book elsewhere in the library system. If the item you want is unavailable, you may request that the item be placed on hold with your library card. You will be notified by phone or mail; as you indicate when you first sign up for a card. The item will be held for pickup up to 10 days from the date the notice was sent, at the library you designate.
