OhioLINK Requesting Restored

The problem that was blocking OhioLINK requests and renewals has been resolved.  If you have any further problem requesting or renewing an OhioLINK item please call the Library at 419-289-5400 when it reopens Monday.
Unfortunately, SearchOhio items apparently still cannot be requested or renewed.  We hope to see this resolved Monday or Tuesday.
