How it works

  1. Request an item* by making a holds request in the catalog, by emailing library@sjcpl.org, or by calling your branch.
  2. Library staff will get to work getting your items together. Processing will take 1-3 days.
  3. When your items are ready, you will receive a notification by phone or email. Make sure your contact preferences are up to date in your library account.  You will have 5 days to pick up your items.
  4. Pull up to the designated curbside delivery spots in the library parking lot. 
  5. Call the branch number to let them know you have arrived. The number will be listed on a sign near the parking lot.
  6. Pop your trunk and a staff member will come out to place your items inside your vehicle.
  7. Enjoy!

*5 item limit to requests made over the phone. Kits and Studio 304 equipment are not eligible for curbside pick-up.
