What is SearchOhio?

331 views   |   Last updated on Dec 10, 2020    SearchOhio requesting OhioLINK borrowing finding print books

 

SearchOhio is a state-wide catalog of items available from Ohio public libraries. (In contrast, OhioLINK offers borrowing from academic libraries.) SearchOhio is an excellent option for finding leisure reading, children's literature, and popular items; whereas, OhioLINK primarily offers content that tends to be more academic or research oriented. As a service, requesting items through SearchOhio works very much like OhioLINK borrowing. You can directly search the SearchOhio catalog at its website, or you can access it within the OhioLINK Central Catalog.
