OhioLINK and SearchOhio Updates

Planned temporary shutdown of OhioLINK and SearchOhio inter-library loans

OhioLINK and SearchOhio, the two services Cuyahoga Falls Library uses to provide our patrons with books and materials from across the state, are planning technology upgrades that will result in a temporary service shutdown. These new developments will integrate their platforms to create a new, simplified search experience for inter-library loans.

Please note the following dates, so you can order any materials you need before the service pause.
The temporary shutdown will affect all Ohio libraries. During this time, customers can return items and pay fines/fees as usual.
