Sign up to Get Text Notifications for Your Library Account
A new service has been announced that allows you to receive updated information about your library account right from your fingertips ! Now in addition to receiving notices by phone call or email , you can also receive notifications about your library card account via text message .
This text notification service will not replace a call or email , but will be an additional way to get notifications . You ’ ll be able to receive notifications , renew checked out items , request information about holds and checked out items and more via text message .
Here are the steps to get started receiving text message notifications :
• Text : SIGNUP + your-14-digit-barcode + PIN to einetwork @ shoutbomb . com ( You must include the + signs in the message )
• Once you do that you will receive a confirmation text message .
When you are signed up you will receive automatic notification about the following : holds , renewal and overdue items . You will receive a renewal notice three days before an item is due and can respond right in the text message to renew the item . For example , to renew all checked out items text the keyword RA .
Additionally , all registered users will receive library card expiration notices 30 days before your library card expires . This is a great reminder to come into your local library and renew your card !
You can discontinue the service by sending a text message to einetwork @ shoutbomb . com with the following : QUIT + your-14-digit-barcode .
