Book Retrieval-- at your Convenience with MadCat

Campus libraries can deliver books to the library locations that are most convenient for you. Search the MadCat Catalog for the book(s) you need. From each item record, click the Place Requests button in order to generate the request.

Once you have logged in with your campus ID number and last name, select “retrieve from shelf.” On the following screen, you will be prompted to select a library pick-up location and to enter your ID number once more.

Please allow 1-3 days for items to reach their destination. You may check the status of your request by logging in to “My MadCat Account.” An email message will be sent when your items are available for pick-up.

Note: As Steenbock Library’s first floor is closed for remodeling, the book-retrieval request will enable us to have the books you need ready at the Circulation Desk.
