Library Catalog Outage [RESOLVED]

The library catalog (www.library.ashland.edu) is currently unavailable due to a university network issue. Other services that use information from the catalog, like OneSearch and the OhioLINK Central Catalog, may experience issues with providing information on Ashland's holdings. Currently, there is no timeline for resolution, but this post will be updated when the issue is resolved. If you need help finding library resources or are experiencing issues with other services, please email library@ashland.edu.

Update: This issue has been resolved.

Active Learning Lab Progress

AU Library: Active Learning Lab

Progress on the Bernice Fauber Baker Active Learning Lab, located on the main floor of Ashland University Library, continues. Drywall is in place and glass doors are scheduled to be installed this week. 

We are excited to see the construction updates on our innovative library instruction lab.
