Holds Locker Instructions

  1. When you place a hold in our catalog, select your preferred Holds Locker for your Hold Pickup Location.
  2. You will be notified when your hold is ready. You may then visit the Holds Locker any time, 24/7. Holds will remain in the lockers for three days.
  3. Scan or type in your JCPL card number. Take your items from the locker that opens and then touch finish.
  • Holds Lockers cannot be used  for Prospector and Interlibrary Loan holds, select oversized library items (like Book Club Kits) and Chromebooks.
  • Temporary JCPL cards will not work with the Holds Lockers.
  • You can return Holds Locker items to any JCPL 24/7 Returns Bin or location.

Returns Bins

Can't get to a full-service location to return your items? Library materials can also be dropped off in a JCPL Returns Bin, available 24/7.
