By freezing your holds, you freeze your place on the waiting list. It also keeps you from having a book made available for you when you are unavailable. It’s easy!

Go to My Account, at the top of this page. Log in with your library barcode number and PIN. A link to see your holds is located on the left side of the page. Click on that link. Freeze each hold you want frozen to by clicking the box. Once you’re ready, click update holds. That’s it!
