In 2005, the Wyomissing
Public Library adopted a state-of-the-art circulation
system called "Millennium." With this new system,
you can now search our library catalog, reserve items,
renew items, and view items
checked out to your account. These features
can be utilized from any computer with Internet access,
at any time day or night.
Note: You may find it easier to
use this guide if you print
this page before starting.
Viewing
the Library's Online Catalog
|
• |
Go to our library Web site ( http://www.wyopublib.org ) and click the "Catalog" button
at the upper-right corner of the screen. This will
take you to the basic search menu: |

|
• |
By clicking on the down arrow
next to "Keyword" you will be able to search by
entering keywords, titles, authors, subjects and
more. After you enter your search terms,
click on "Go" to see your search results. |
|
• |
When you get your search
results, click on the title of the item you are
interested in. This will show you the item's
call number, and also tell you if the book is
checked out or not. |
Logging Into Your Account
|
• |
Go to the starting search page
of the library catalog. (If you are
already searching the catalog, click the "Start
Over" button at the bottom of the page.) |
|
• |
To log into your account, click
"My Millennium": |

|
• |
This will take you to the log in
screen. You will need to enter your name,
your library card number, and a PIN
(personal identification number). |
|
• |
Click "Submit." If you are
logging in for the first time, you will be asked
to confirm the PIN you selected. |
Viewing Your Account and
Renewing Items
|
• |
Once you are logged in, click
"Checked Out Items." You will see a list
of items you have out, the due date(s), and
whether anyone else has requested the item. |
|
• |
To renew an item, select the box
next to the title and press "Renew Selected
Items." If you are able to renew, the new
due date will appear. |
|
• |
When logged into "My Millennium"
you can also view any late fees on your account,
search the catalog, modify your PIN, and view
your recent check-out history. |
Reserving Items
|
• |
Suppose the item you want is
checked out -- you can reserve it, and when the
item comes in, the library will call you to let
you know it is available for pickup. (Some
items may have other patrons already on the hold
list. This could delay the time it takes
you to get the item.) |
|
• |
To reserve a book, click on the
"Request" button in the lower area of the
screen. You then will be asked to enter your
patron information. Type in your name,
library barcode number, and PIN. If you do
not have a PIN yet, just enter a four-digit
number; this will be your PIN in the future.
After you click "Submit" you will be asked to
verify your PIN selection. |
|
• |
Once you enter your name,
library barcode number, and PIN you will be
asked to verify your item request. Simply
click "Request Renewed Item" and you will be
placed on the hold list for that item. |
Our staff will be happy to
assist if you have any questions or need help.
