Library Pro Tip: How to Transfer and Cancel Holds

Are you waiting for a hold notification?  

Now’s a great time to login to your Denver Public Library account, revisit your current hold list and consider - 

Do you still want it?

If not, you can Cancel the request.

Does the pick up location still work for you?

We know that situations have changed for many of our customers. If the hold pick up location you originally selected no longer works for you, you can request to have it transferred to a different Denver Public Library location.

Here’s how to cancel holds or change the pick up location:

  1. Go to denverlibrary.org
  2. Click on My Account
  3. Select Holds
     

To change the Pick Up location

  • Check the box to the left of any request you wish to pick up elsewhere
     
  • Scroll down and click the Change Pick Up Location button
    Change Pickup Location
  • Select from the New Pick Up Location drop down menu.
     
  • Click Submit
     
  • Staff will be alerted to transfer your hold to the new pick up location.
     
  • You will receive a hold notification when the transferred item arrives at the new pick up location.
