Welcome to the new Aspen catalog!
Here is a quick overview of the most common functions you might need.
How to log in to your account
Log into your online account by clicking on the Sign In option in the right-hand side of the menu bar.
In the Username box, type in your full 14-digit Library Barcode Number.
In the Password box, type in your PIN/Password (usually the last 4 digits of your phone number).
Forgot Your Password?
If you get an error message, or if you can’t remember your password, click the Reset My Password link. You’ll be prompted to enter your library card number and email address. You’ll receive an email with instructions. Please note that you must have an email associated with your account to reset your PIN/Password. If you do not, please contact the library at 610-965-9284.
How to turn on your reading history
By default, Reading History is turned off for privacy purposes. You can turn on this function after logging in to your account. When turned on, a list of your checkouts will automatically be saved going forward.
How to search the catalog
To perform a basic search, type a search term in the Search box. Select any specific Type and Where to search, and then click on Search. To perform an advanced search, select Advanced Search in the Type of Search dropdown menu.
Narrow your results if you wish (including library, format, etc.) by using the menu along the left-hand side. If you click on Where is it?, you’ll get a pop-up screen with a list of locations and availability.
How to place items on hold
You can place a hold by clicking on the Place Hold button directly on the search results screen.
Clicking Place Hold will produce a popup window, where you will be asked to enter your notification preferences.
