Recall and Hold Procedure

Select the "Request" button while on the page that tells you that the item you want is checked out along with it's due date.
Enter your WVUID number encoded on your library card and then your last name. Click "Log in".
Select "Recall" or "Hold" from the drop-down box for type of request. Click "OK".
The hold or recall request screen for the book or journal now appears.
You will see the book or journal's barcode displayed in a pull down menu.
Re-enter your WVUID number encoded on your library card in the blank box labeled WVUID.
In the "Comments" field, enter your local telephone number and/or email address so that the library can contact you when the book arrives.
Choose a location where you want the book delivered.
Select "Submit Request" button.

Patrons who have a book or journal checked out that is recalled by another patron will have a recall fine added onto their account if they do not return the item by the date specified in the recall notification letter. Recall fines are $3.00 per day beginning with the new due date given in the recall notification letter.
