How do I get a PIN number?
Your default PIN is the last 4 digits of your Social Security number. If that number does not work, contact library staff at 677-2474 to obtain your new number.

Why won't the on-line renewal let me renew my books?
There are several possibilities. The item may have a reserve on it. Your card may have expired or you may have late fees.. The easiest way to resolve this situation is to give the helpful library staff a call and let them explore.

Can I check out without having my card with me?
You may check out materials without your card if you show a valid picture ID.
