How to use My Book Cart
Adding Items to My Book Cart and Saving to My Lists
You can save items to lists for future reference. Lists can be modified and exported.
My Book Cart is used to add items to a saved list. Start by searching for items in the catalog. Use the Add to Book Cart icon (basket) by items in your search results, or on individual item record pages. You can view items in your cart at any time by choosing the My Book Cart link at the top or bottom of the catalog page.
After you have at least one item in your cart, you can add to a list. View the items in your cart, then use the checkboxes to select items. You can select individual items using the checkboxes next to them, or all items/none by using the link at the top of the list.
Choose an existing list to save the item to from the dropdown menu, and select Add. Or, choose Save to new list. Give your list a name and description, then select Create. You can view and edit your lists from My Account.
Request Hold
Request all the items in your cart at once. You can choose your pick-up location as well as set a date you need the items by.
