OhioLINK is a library consortium, consisting of college and university libraries, as well as some public libraries. Members of OhioLINK share resources. If you locate the musical recording you want in the OhioLINK catalog, you may be able to request the item. Requested items are delivered to the LCCC Library Circulation Desk and may be checked out.

On the Request Item page, type your name and the 14-digit barcode from the front of your library/ID card, and click Submit.

When your request is complete, the catalog displays a message indicating the library from which the item will be delivered. You will receive an e-mail in your LCCC e-mail account when the item is available to be picked up at the CIRCULATION desk on the second floor of the Bass Library. |
