A New Location?
No, but you might notice one of our new collections set up as a location when you reserve materials through the catalog. The Boise Attic Selections makes available items we want and need to keep, but don't have the space for in our branch locations. Moving these materials makes room for new and more frequently browsed items.
Items in the Boise Attic Selections are only available through placing holds through the catalog, as there is no public access. When you see these items, place a hold for delivery to your preferred pick-up location!
