How can I place a hold on a book?

You can place a hold on an item (a book, a DVD, etc.) through our Library Catalog.

1. ​​Search for the item within ALL Maricopa Community College Libraries in the Library Catalog. 
2. In search results, find correct match then click on "Place Hold" button.
3. Pop up window will ask you to log into My Account/Renew with your MEID and password.
4. From the window that displays, select the pickup library from the drop-down list.
5. Click on Hold tab in My Account/Renew to check the status of your hold. 

It usually takes about 3 working days for the item to arrive if it's not checked out.

You can also call the specific MCCCD library to have them place the item on hold for you or ask a GWC Librarian (602-286-8458) to call on your behalf.
