You can display the requests you have made for materials (and suspend, reactivate, or cancel the requests, if you wish) through the Patron Account Requests view. For each item, the requests view displays the format and title of the item, the pick-up library you designated, and the status of the request. The following statuses are common listings:

• Active - Your request for the item is active and the pick-up library will receive the item when it is available.

• Inactive - A request for an item in the library system has an activation date in the future; for an interlibrary loan item, the library must review the request before it is sent.

• Pending - An item has been requested within the library system, and the request is active.

• Held - The item you requested has been located. The library notifies you when it is available for pick-up.

• Not-Supplied - There are no items to fill a request that you placed in the library.

• Cancelled - The request has been cancelled.

  The requests view displays a Hold Position column. The numbers in the Hold Position column indicate the status of your request compared to other patrons' requests for the same item.

Follow these steps to view your requests and suspend, reactivate, or cancel them, if necessary.
