Library to Join Search
Ohio and OhioLink
Can’t find something on the shelf? No problem! Search Ohio and
OhioLink are here to help.
The Library will soon begin providing customers access to over
17 million items from public and academic libraries throughout
the state of Ohio with Search Ohio and OhioLink. Search Ohio
provides customers simple access to materials not available in
our Library from 15 public libraries, including Cuyahoga County
Public Library, Greene County Public Library, Stark Library
Consortium, Toledo-Lucas County Public Library, Westerville
Public Library, and Youngstown-Mahoning County Public Library.
Watch a free movie anytime with Freegal Movies.
Streaming Videos Coming
Soon!
The Library will soon offer streaming videos to customers. This
new service, Freegal Movies, is provided by the same company
that supports our music download service. Customers will enjoy
hundreds of popular movies and TV shows with Freegal Movies.
Like Freegal Music, the new movie service allows the Library to
license content for an annual fee. Freegal Movies is expected to
launch in March.

LibraryLinks | Spring 2013
OhioLink is the academic version with 16 public universities,
23 community/technical colleges, and 49 private colleges
participating throughout the state. Customers who search the
Library’s catalog and do not find a copy available can simply
search the Search Ohio or OhioLink catalogs and if a copy is
available at one of the participating libraries, they can request it
and it will be routed to the pick-up library in three to five days.
Participating library customers can also request our materials
as well.
Participation in both Search Ohio and OhioLink is possible
because of the Library’s recent change to the new Innovative
Interfaces, Inc. Integrated Library System.
