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.
Text message notifications are just another way to stay connected with your local library and a great way to keep track of your items. For more information and more keyword shortcuts please visit: http:// librarycatalog. einetwork. net / MyResearch / SMShelp
