How To Request an Item for Pickup

Claremont Colleges Students, Faculty, and Staff	Pickup requests can be made via the Book Request form or by using the “Get this Item” button from within Library Search, which will fill in the request form for you. When the form prompts you to answer the question “How would you like this item delivered?,” select “I would like to pick-up– Curbside or Walk-In” from the options in the drop-down menu. Please note: we will be ending our curbside pickup service on 8/31/22. Walk-in pickup will still be available.
Community Borrowers	Request items for pickup using the Community Borrower Book Pickup Request form. Please note: our service of pulling books for community users will end 8/31/22. Those with community borrower cards will still be able to pull items from the stacks and check them out.

Curbside Pickup: Make an appointment for curbside pickup using the link in the notification email. Appointment required. Please note: we will be ending our curbside pickup service on 8/31/22. Walk-in pickup will still be available.
Walk-in Pickup: Pickup your items at the Main Services Desk (located at the South Entrance). No appointment required.

Please note that turnaround time will depend on the number of requests we receive and staff capacity. Items are not available for pickup until you have received notification that they are ready. For a faster alternative, please come into the Library to retrieve items from the stacks.
