You Can Start Placing Holds Now

I will be seeing you all very soon! I'm hoping to have checkout for grades 4-6 during our first library class. If you want to have a book waiting for you, go ahead and place your hold now. Instructions are below in case you forgot how to do it. Please remember two things:

• any overdue items from last year must be returned or paid for before you can take out anything else
• interlibrary loans from other schools won't be available until mid-September

Log in

1. Go to http://ricat.net.
   
   
2. Under “Elementary Schools,” scroll down to the Stadium link. The school library page will open.
   
   
3. Click the “Login” button in the top right.


4. 
   Enter your User Name: CDS#####
   (fill in your lunch/shelf card number)
   
   
5. Enter your Password: MMDDYY
   (fill in your six-digit birthdate; for example, May 5, 2003 would be typed in as 050503)
   
   
6. You should now see your name in the top right corner of the screen.

Click on the “My Info” tab to see what books you might still have checked out. BRING THEM TO SCHOOL! .

Place a Hold

1. Click the "Catalog" tab.
   
   
2. Before searching for your title or subject, choose “RICAT (all members)” from the Location drop-down. This will search all schools, so if Stadium doesn’t have what you’re looking for, you can still request your item. 
   
   
   
3. When find the item you want, click on the book’s title to go to the Details page.
   
   
4. Then click the “Hold It!” button on the right
