Activating or suspending a hold request

You can activate or suspend a hold request. Suspending a request temporarily defers it until you decide to activate it again or cancel it. You can activate any suspended hold request when you are ready to put the item back on your hold request list.

To activate or suspend a hold request

  1. Log in to your user account.

  2. Click the Holds link.

Information Portal displays a list of all the items that you have requested.

  1. Do one of these options:

  2. To change the status of all the items in the list, mark the box to the left of the Title column.

  3. Mark the box next to the items for which you want to change the status.

  1. Click Change Status.

  2. If you suspended an active hold request and you want Information Portal to automatically activate the hold request, choose the date that you want in the Suspend until fields; otherwise, continue with the next step.

  3. When you are finished, log out of your user account.
