combination of both, and cannot exceed 40 characters).
If you get a "Not valid PIN" response, please check with
the staff at the Front Desk next time you are in the library or contact
the library at 978-456-4114 and ask to speak with the reference librarian
regarding setting up a pin.
Once you are viewing your record, the screen will show information on
items checked out, fines and bills and information on requests / holds. (Note:
information on holds will not appear in your record if you do not have any items
requested / on hold in the C/WMARS network.
In addition, any holds or requests you have placed that have been
requested from libraries outside of the C/W MARS network will not appear
on your record as well. If you
should have any questions regarding these items please call the library at
978- 456-4114.).
