Interlibrary loan interruption
SearchOhio Update: 2/9/2026
SearchOhio's catalog is gradually being restored as of February 9, 2026. OhioLINK materials should be added to the catalog eventually.
We know many patrons rely on interlibrary loan services, and we sincerely appreciate your patience. This longer-than-expected system outage was caused by problems with a required software change made at the consortium level. We are glad to begin resuming this service.

If you need a title Wright Library does not own and cannot find it in the new SearchOhio catalog, please contact us.
What’s different now?
As SearchOhio borrowing resumes, there are a few important changes to be aware of:
- Due dates are now calculated from the date an item is shipped from the owning library, not the date you pick it up.
- Search interface has been greatly simplified.
- OhioLINK and SearchOhio catalogs are being integrated. Search for and request both SearchOhio (public libraries) and OhioLINK (academic libraries) from within a single catalog. OhioLINK titles are expected to be added at some point.
We encourage patrons to watch due dates closely and contact us if you have questions.
