Email notification currently includes:

1. Reminder notices three days before items are due.
2. Notification that an item you requested is available for pickup.

Want to try it? It's simple!

SEND AN EMAIL TO:

Librarynotice@midyork.org with your name and library card number.

WATCH FOR:

Our reply to you within 5 business days. (Check your bulk or spam mailbox, too!)

Check with your library to see if the new email notices will replace telephone notification.

Invalid email addresses will be removed from your account and phone notifications will resume for items ready for pickup.

THE LIBRARY CANNOT GUARANTEE DELIVERY OF THESE EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS.

FAILURE TO RECEIVE A REMINDER NOTICE DOES NOT WAIVE THE USER'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TIMELY RETURN OF MATERIAL OR FROM ANY SUBSEQUENT FINES, FEES OR CHARGES.

Important information:

EMAIL SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A PRIVATE, SECURE ENVIRONMENT. Anyone with access to your email account can see your notices. For example, if you share an email account with family members or another person, they will be able to read your hold and reminder notice messages.

Users who elect to receive notices via email should alter spam or junk mail filter settings to allow mail from the Mid-York Library System domain "midyork.org". Even then, some email providers may filter out some email notices to patrons.

Items become available for pickup throughout the day, but the email notification will be sent at night.

To get current information about items you have requested, you can check your account by signing in to the E-Library Catalog at www.midyork.org or by calling your local library.

We are excited to bring this new service to you! This information is also available in pdf form (2.23MB, requires Adobe Acrobat Reader).
