The Catalog maintains an account for each member. Features include renewing and reserving items, as well as viewing items you have checked out and their status, delaying your reserves so you won't miss your turn, designating how you wish to be contacted, and seeing your history of checked out items. When accessing library account on a mobile device, select Show Login in top right corner after following your library account link below.

To Renew an item please log into your library account using your 4 digit library card number and your 10 digit  telephone number.  When you click on MY ACCOUNT you will see an Items Out/Renewal tab.  You can then see the books you have checked out and a button that says Renew.  If the book is available to renew the date due will be updated. Another option is to contact Gabbie. This is our electronic library circulation system that allows patrons to see what materials they have checked out and to renew with just a text to (231) 244-2881. Gabbie allows patrons to simply text a short message with one of the following commands: Renew due, Renew all, Summary and Help. Text messages must be sent from the phone number we have on file. 

To Reserve an item please log into your library account.  If the catalog shows the item you want is not available, or you'd like us to pull the book for you to  pick up later, simply click on the Reserve This Item button.  You will be notified when the title becomes available.  You have 3 business days to pick up the reserved item.
