Search for your course or instructor to find books and kits available for you. Course codes are listed in Front Range Community College's course catalog. For Nursing, search NUR and the course number, or your instructor's last name.
How to place holds
Note: you will need a Poudre River Public Library District library card and pin to place holds on physical materials!
1. Search for the title you want at PoudreLibraries.org. You may have to use the filters on the left-hand side of the results page to narrow down the results. For example, you can filter by date, library location (Harmony Library), "check on the shelf" (available now), Adult Non-fiction, or Course Reserves.
2. Once you found the title you want, look just to the right of the title for the Place hold button.
3. Login using your Poudre Libraries barcode number and 4-digit pin. (If you registered with your Wolf Card, use the barcode on that card and the pin you set up when registering for the library account.)
4. Once you login with your library barcode and pin, you can choose where to pick up your hold when it's ready. Harmony Library is the closest location for FRCC-LC students.
5. When your hold is ready, you will receive an email letting you know where you can pick it up and how long it will stay on the shelf for you. Holds typically stay on the shelf for 7 days. You can view items you placed on hold by logging into My Account on PoudreLibraries.org
