Borrowing History

Your library does not keep records of your borrowing without your permission. However, when you enable the Borrowing History feature, the system will start building a list of all the titles you borrow.

You can turn on the Borrowing History feature in the registration process and start saving your titles immediately, or do so later.

To enable or disable Borrowing History

1. Log in to your account.
2. On the menu, click My Settings.
3. On the My Settings page, under the Account Preferences heading, find your Borrowing History setting.
4. Click Change.
5. On the Borrowing History page, click the toggle to turn borrowing history on or off.
6. Click Save Changes.
7. You’ll see the message “Your new information has been saved.”

Notes: 

• When this feature is disabled, any existing Borrowing History titles that have not been added to your Completed shelf or to a list will be permanently deleted.
• If you don’t see a Borrowing History option under Account Preferences, this feature is not enabled at your library.

Your Borrowing History page is visible only to you. Please consult our Privacy Policy to learn more about how your library protects your private information. There’s a link to the Privacy Policy at the bottom of every page.

Sorting

You can sort borrowing history by returned date, title, author or format, if you have 100 titles or fewer.

When your borrowing history has more than 100 items, sorting is removed. If your borrowing history contained thousands of titles, the page load time would be unacceptably slow.
