Frequently Asked Questions

Your Reading History is a personal list of items that you have checked out from the Library, a list you can tell the library catalog to keep for you. Once you have created this list, you can see it at any time by signing in to your library account with your library card number and PIN. Your list is private and only you can see it (unless you choose to share your card and PIN with another person).

The Library does not automatically collect your reading history. If you want to start keeping your history, you must choose to 'Opt In' before this list can be started. This means when you start your list it won't have any of the books you checked out from before  - just the ones you check out after you have begun keeping the list.

Log in to your library account with your library card number and PIN. (if you don't have a PIN yet, here is how to get one.)

Click the 'My Reading History' button. If you have not yet created a Reading History, you will see the message 'No reading history available'. Click the 'Opt In' button to start collecting your Reading History. Once you 'Opt In', the library catalog starts recording a list of the items you check out from that time forward.

Items you have already checked out at the time of opting in, like items you have read in the past, will not be on the list. After opting in to Reading History, anything you check out will be added to the list, and you can see it whenever you enter the Reading History display.

Are you sure you want to stop keeping your history? Once you 'opt out' of reading history, the catalog will no longer save the titles of items you have checked out., and will forget everything that used to be in your list.

To Opt Out, first delete all items from your Reading History. 

Then click the 'Opt Out' link to cease collecting Reading History.
