42-year-old Anthony Ward is wanted on recall to prison following a breach of licence conditions.
Ward was jailed for burglary last year and was subsequently released in February.
He has since been recalled to prison following poor behaviour and failure to reside in an approved address.
Police believe Ward could be in the Ripon area. He also has links to Leeds.
Ward is described as white, brown hair, blue eyes.
A police spokesperson said:
"If you see or have information as to him current whereabouts, please call North Yorkshire Police on 101.
"Alternatively, you can pass on information anonymously through independent charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111 or via their website.
"If you have an immediate sighting of Ward, please call 999."
