- In the HCPL Catalog, find the title you want to pin to a board
- Click on the cover image
- Right click over the enlarged cover image
- Select Properties from the drop down menu
- Highlight and copy the Address (URL)
- In Pinterest, go to the board you are pinning to
- Put your mouse over your name and choose Add on the upper right hand corner of the screen
- Paste the cover image URL in the box
- Click Find Images
- Click the Pin It button to choose your image
- In the comment box, write the title and author’s name
- Write your name and branch code
- Check the board name to make sure you are pinning to the correct board
- Click Pin It
- When you go back to the board, you can now see your Pin. Next, we must link this pin back to the catalog. Click Edit.
- Go back to the catalog and copy the catalog URL of the book or movie you are pinning
Important-make sure you begin your search for each title from the HCPL homepage. If you search the catalog for a title from somewhere else on our website, the URL will eventually expire and no longer work. - Back in Pinterest, paste the URL in the Link box under Edit Pin
- Click Save Changes
- That’s it. Now, when somebody clicks your pin, it will take them to the HCPL Catalog record.
