Q: How do I save something to this shelf?
A: In search results, and from a title’s details page, look for the For Later button to add the title to your shelf. When you’re viewing your For Later shelf, click the Add a title button, and then search for the title you want to add.
Q: How long are titles on my For Later shelf stored?
A: Titles are kept indefinitely. Titles you place on this shelf (or any other shelf) will remain until you delete them.
Q: What’s the maximum number of titles I can have on my For Later shelf?
A: There is no maximum. You can have as many titles as you like.
Q: Can other people see this shelf?
A: Yes. However, if you would prefer that others not see a specific title on your For Later shelf, you can mark the item as private. When another member views your shelf, the title will not be visible. Items that are not marked private will be available to other users in your library, users at other libraries, and on the World Wide Web. You can also specify a default privacy setting for your For Later shelf.
Your shelves will be set to private by default, unless you choose to change this in the settings.
To change the shelf privacy setting, log in to your account, and then click My Settings on the menu. Look for the Privacy section.
Q: Can I import the list of things I wanted to borrow from the old catalog?
A: If you created a list on the old catalog, you may be able to import it into the new system. Look for an Import List button on your For Later shelf. Clicking the button does a one-time import of all of the items you saved to your list, and adds them to the For Later shelf.
