Updates and timeline for Library Services Platform (LSP) Upgrade – OhioLINK borrowing unavailable beginning May 23

Posted on by

As work progresses on the Library Services Platform (LSP) Upgrade, please note important updates and timeline. Because this migration involves several library systems, including the catalog, acquisitions and circulation, a pause in certain services is necessary.

  • May 23 – OhioLINK and SearchOhio borrowing and renewals unavailable. Physical books from other Ohio universities, as well as materials from public libraries, cannot be requested nor can previously borrowed materials be renewed. While OhioLINK and SearchOhio services are unavailable, work with UC librarians to find alternatives that fulfill teaching and research needs. OhioLINK requesting will return with the LSP go live this summer. The supplemental SearchOhio lending will return in the fall. Interlibrary Loan (ILL) remains available.
  • Early June – look for a preview of the draft LSP discovery interface.
  • June 25 – the new LSP is scheduled to go live.

The Library LSP upgrade website includes more information on the project, including a FAQ. Contact your subject librarian with any questions.

In order to keep interlibrary loan information as private as possible, we are purging all transactions from our ILLiad database that were submitted prior to January 1, 2013.

Currently, you could find a list of everything you ever requested through ILL by logging into your ILLiad account and clicking on View > All Requests (which includes items currently checked out) or View > History Requests.  While this can serve as a useful record, in the future, if you want to keep a copy of your request history, you will need to download your requests using the instructions below.  We will keep a rolling history of four complete calendar years and the current year.  At this time we need to remove several years of records and future removal of records will occur in January of each year.
