Filling a Hold Request with an Item from Another Location

When you check in an item that was sent from another location to fill a request, you notify Circulation that the item is available to the requester for checkout. Circulation changes the item’s status to Item Being Held and then generates a notice informing the requester that the item is on hold.

To fill a hold request with an item from another location

1 Check in the item. (For instructions, see Checking In an Item Normally.)

Horizon displays a window telling you who requested the item:

2 Mark the boxes for the items you want to print.

You can print a mailing label or a hold slip or both.

3 Click OK.

Horizon prints the notices you selected and changes the item status to Being Held.

4 If you printed a hold slip, you can put it with the book and follow your library’s procedures for mailing a notice or otherwise notifying the borrower, and for holding the item for the borrower to pick up.
