We do not provide information on who has checked out particular books. If you need something that is checked out, you can recall the book or put a hold on it.

When you recall a book, the library contacts the person who has the book and gives that person 10 days to return the book. Once the book is returned, the library contacts you so you can check it out. In other words, you initiate a change in the due date of the book.

When you hold a book, the library contacts you when the book is returned. In other words, the due date of the book remains unchanged and your name is put on a list of people wanting to check out the book.
