How to put a book on hold from home:

  1. Go to our website and click on the link for the library catalog.

  2. Log in with your library card number (no spaces) and your pin. If you haven’t set up a pin it will be the last 4 digits of your home phone number. (If you can't remember your pin, call WTPL for help at 908-876-3596.)

  3. Look up the book you want.

  4. Select the book by going to “details.”

  5. On the left hand side of the screen (underneath the image of the book cover) will be a link that says “place hold.” Select that link.

  6. Make sure Washington Twp. Public Library is selected and then click “ok.”

  7. Your book should be at the Washington Township Public Library in about a week (it might be longer if there is already a waiting list for the title). You’ll get an automated (recorded) phone call to tell you that it’s here.
