(for UC Berkeley GLADIS libraries only...)

Patron ID:
4 digit PIN:

Notify: Daily Weekly Monthly Yearly  Never    On error
Action:
Once Daily Stop

(operation may take up to a minute)

Instructions

Bookly will renew your all your books on the Gladis library system at UC Berkeley.

You can ask Bookly to simply renew all your books once, or, if you like, Bookly can renew all your books on a daily basis. This way, unless there's a hold on your books, you will not have to worry about needing to manually renew your books.

In both cases you will need to enter your patron (student) ID and your (library) PIN. If you are not sure what your ID or PIN is, see explanation below.

If you want Bookly to renew your books on a daily basis, please enter your email address in the "e-mail address" text-box, and choose a notification rate. Bookly can report your book renewal status on a regular basis as you desire (the default is monthly). Also, you can choose to be notified whenever an error is encountered during a renewal attempt (this is the default action).

Choose "Daily" to have Bookly renew your books every weekday (this is the default action), "Once" to see how Bookly renews all your books (this can take a while especially if you have many books...) 


To remove yourself from the list simply enter your ID and choose "Stop". Your PIN is not needed in this case. No information is retained in the system once you are removed.

The information entered  will be used only to renew your books and to contact you as you request.

Patron ID and PIN

Your patron ID is:

Students: The number on your student ID.
Faculty/Staff: The bar-code number on back of your library card.

If not present, use your campus employee number.
All Others: The bar-code number on back of your library card.

If not present, go to Service Desk Main Library.

For UCB students, faculty, and staff, your BIRTH month and day (ex. May 3 = 0503) is your PIN. For others, use the PIN you requested when you got your Library card. To establish a PIN, go to the Doe Library Privileges Desk.
