How To Place an Item on Hold in KOHA
1. Find the item you are looking for. In this example, I want some poetry by First People’s author, Joy Harjo.
2. Click add to cart.
3. Check the box to the left of the title, and then click “place hold”.
Watch this video for more tips on using KOHA.
**This same process applies to books from Georgia Public Library, and books from our partners in the Catamount Consortium. If the item you would like is available at at more than one other library, you simply follow these steps to place it on hold and KOHA will determine which library can get it to us fastest. You should not specify which library.**
