The Bibliocommons catalog defaults most settings to public to enhance the social features of the site. However, you can easily change your settings to make all your shelf items private. 

Log in to the Bibliocommons catalog by going to our homepage sfpl.org and clicking on the LOG IN/MY SFPL link in the top, center of the page, and then entering your full library card number or user name, and your PIN/password.

Once you are successfully logged in, click on your USER NAME on the top right side of the screen; choose MY SETTINGS from the drop down menu, then PRIVACY from the options listed on the left side of the screen.

From here, you can click the boxes next to any shelves you want to automatically keep private. Then the next time you add items, it will not be shared with other Bibliocommons users.
