Patron Booklists

One of the features available in the new catalog system are custom booklists. You can create a collection of reading materials for any topic that inspires you!

Create a booklist for:

  • Cookbooks
  • Books by your favorite author
  • Books you want to read in the future
  • Recommendations
  • Books by genre
  • Books to re-read
  • Holiday movie lists
  • 2024 Must Reads
  • Reading challenge lists
  • Books to movies (good adaptations!)


The possibilities are endless!

 

Creating a booklist

To create a booklist, make sure you're logged into your library account. Please note that all PINs were reset on February 8 during the system migration. The default should be the last four digits of the phone number linked to your account. Contact a library staff member for help resetting your account PIN.
