Service Outage: Telephone Hold Notices are Out of Order, Try Email Instead
Due to a service outage, telephone hold notices did not go out between December 16 -30. Email notices were sent as scheduled.
UPDATE 12/30: Telephone notices have been restored.
- If you were expecting a hold this month and normally receive telephone notices, check your hold status online. If you have a hold ready for pickup just come on down-we're keeping all holds on the pickup shelves through January 4.
- Consider switching to email notices, which are easy and more reliable Switch to email now
