Computer workstations with internet access can be used for up to two (2) hours per person per day.

Computer workstations with internet access are available at all RPL locations.

Using the app, you can:

• Search the catalogue
• Check to see if you have items ready for pickup, or overdue, and check your fines right on the home screen
• Renew items out
• Place new holds
• View and manage your holds
• View your reading history
• View your fines details

Holds are not filled in a purely numeric order. They are filled in a way that ensures that customers of a library system get first access to items owned by that library system.  

For example, you may be the seventh person in the queue, but if you are the only RPL customer waiting, and a copy owned by RPL is checked in, you will receive it next. Because of this it is virtually impossible to create an accurate record of where any particular customer is in the queue.

We’ll send an automatic email to let you know we’ve received your suggestion. If items are approved for purchase or sent to interlibrary loan, a hold will be placed for you and you will receive a notification when it is available. Our staff are unable to track the status of your suggestion so please don’t inquire after your submission. 

Because of the high volume of requests we receive, you will not be notified if we are unable to fill your request.

• Items already available in the province-wide library catalogue
• Current popular titles from best-selling authors. We order these anyway. Check the library catalogue periodically to see if it’s there
• Textbooks
• Titles that are not yet available (in pre-publication or currently in theatres)
• Titles older than seven years from date of production, or those that are no longer available (out of print). For older items, we will try to find a copy for you using interlibrary loan.

• RPL will consider purchasing suggested materials that fit into our Collections Policy.
• Authors, titles, or subjects of interest to you that would also be of interest to others; and/or
• Items of local interest, relating to the geographic area of Regina or Saskatchewan.

Requests that do not meet these criteria will automatically be rejected. 

You can submit up to 10 purchase and/or interlibrary loan requests per month.

You’ll need a Regina Public Library card and a PIN (personal identification number) to request a title through interlibrary loan or suggest a title for purchase. Your library account must be in good standing (owing less than $25).
