Due Dates for Library Materials in Response to AU Community Measures

In response to the library's closure to the community, AU Library has automatically renewed all AU material with due dates between now and March 30th.  Patrons with OhioLINK material due before March 30th should call the library circulation desk at 419-289-5400 to renew these items.  Materials may still be returned through the book return on the building's west side (adjacent to the Chapel) immediately to the left of the service entrance door.  For now you may still request library material online or through OhioLINK but it will be not available for pickup until March 30th. To check the status of material on your library account, use this link.
