Adding Account Users

Library patrons may add users to their accounts for limited functions including:

  • Placing holds on your account
  • Picking up holds from the library
  • Checking out items
  • Viewing recent borrowing history

Please be aware that by authorizing another user to your account, you are still responsible for any items borrowed including accrued fines and fees associated with late or lost items.

Added users may be asked to show proof of identification when using your account.
