Manage the hold queue on a library book
A 60-second screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 5 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to manage the hold queue on a library book
- 1Click Library under Library & resources in the sidebar and open a book
- 2Scroll to the Holds card to see the queue — each hold shows the requester, any needed-by date, and a status badge
- 3To add a family to the queue yourself, click Add hold, select the Student, and click Place hold
- 4When a copy comes back, check it out to the first person in the queue from the Check out page
- 5Clear a finished or abandoned request with the delete button on the hold (confirm Cancel this hold?)
Part of Library, resources & reservations
Barcode labels you print yourself, a scan station for checkout, holds families place from home, shared equipment reserved with dates instead of arguments — and the textbooks, shelf counts, and supply cupboard that come with all of it.
