Remote Checkout: Procedures

You may place online holds for books or you may retrieve books directly from the shelf.

If you would like to place an online hold for a book or other item from the UNO Library,

please have your UNO Library login credentials available and follow the steps below. 

Need a journal article? Please request articles using the Library's interlibrary loan service.

1) Search the library catalog for particular item that you want to check out. 

2) Once you have found a book in print that you want to read, click on the "Place Hold" button.

3) If you have UNO credentials, you will click on the login and be authenticated using your campus credentials. If you are a special borrowers, you will be asked to put in your ID and Library PIN. 

• Your ID is your 7-digit UNO ID number with two zeros added to the end.
• If you don’t know your LIBRARY PIN, see instructions for remote access.

4) Library staff will do the following:

1. retrieve the item(s)
2. check them out to you
3. Email you when your material is ready to be picked up from the library Services Desk (first floor lobby). Most items will be ready for pick up in two (2) business days.

Please note:
Non-circulating items will have to be used in the library, with a 3-hour time limit. Your UNO ID will be required to pick up items, which will be bagged and labeled to minimize interaction.
