Suspend Requests

You may suspend requests you have made for library materials until a specified future date. Requests may only be suspended before items are available for you.

When requests are suspended, your name continues to rise in the queue but the hold will not be activated for you until after the date you specify. If you are unable to use materials during a particular period, suspension assures you do not lose your place in a lengthy queue.
