Patrons now have the option to receive a text message notification for when holds are ready for pickup. This means no more checking emails or logging into accounts; instead, a simple text message can be set up to alert when items are available for pick-up. The text message will have the item name, the branch location for pick-up, and the branch’s phone number.

- Select Add SMS Notification.

If you need to make a change to your phone number you can select any of the text in blue, and it will open up the pop-up so you can edit any of the information.
