What are skip-the-line books?

Skip-the-line books are special copies of titles set aside by your library. They have a few rules for how they circulate:

• Skip-the-line copies don't have wait lists
• Skip-the-line copies can't be renewed
• Your library may have shorter loan periods for them
• Your library may limit the number you can borrow at a time 

This is a great way for a library to lend select copies of popular books quickly and delight more patrons.

Skip-the-line copies are marked with a shamrock icon. You may see them in lists your library creates, in search results, or when browsing.

To see the available skip-the-line titles at your library, go to > skip the line (under "Explore with filters").
