| When I find an item in the online catalog, how do I know where to look for it? |

When you find a title in the online catalog that you are interested in, you may see the call number and location on the results screen. For full details, click the title and scroll down to see information for each physical item held in the library system. Location identifies the library building and collection where the item lives (for example, "Forest City, Forest City Main Floor" or "Montrose, Montrose Main Floor." Montrose Outreach is the Books-by-Mail/Books-on-Wheels collection; ask the library for these.) This is a joint Pennsylvania system, so you may see locations outside of Susquehanna County; our holdings are in Forest City, Hallstead-Great Bend, Montrose and Susquehanna only. Call number indicates where the item is shelved if it's available. F means adult fiction (shelved alphabetically by author), J is juvenile fiction, q is oversized, non-fiction will have Dewey Decimal System numbers, etc. Please ask the library for details on where to find items at each individual library. Status shows whether the item is checked out or not. Available in green means the item should be on the shelf. Any other status will be red, which means you can ask to have the item put on hold for you and we'll call you when it comes in. Next to a red Checked Out you will see the date due (note that it may or may not come back by that date, and it may be renewed until a later date.) If there is no due date, the item is long overdue. |
