The Westerville Public Library is now the second public library to participate in the Ohio Library and Information Network’s online borrowing system during a one-year pilot project. Beginning today, Westerville Public Library users have access to 43.9 million books and other resources from OhioLINK.
In addition, OhioLINK users can now request books from Westerville Public Library’s collection online using the OhioLINK Library Catalog and may choose to pick up requested OhioLINK materials at the Westerville Public Library or any participating OhioLINK library.
This is OhioLINK’s second pilot project to share library materials with a public library. The first pilot, with Cuyahoga County Public Library, began in August 2004. Next fall, OhioLINK will begin a similar one-year pilot program with the Upper Arlington High School Library. The pilot will give high school students the chance to access scholarly materials from OhioLINK libraries.
A complete press release about this pilot project is available.
