Searching the Catalog

The library catalog searches the collections of all the SEO Consortium Member Libraries in Ohio. Items owned by Ripley, Russellville, or Aberdeen will be marked with a green check-mark. Use the tabs along the top of the catalog webpage to choose what type of search to perform. Use the “Limit by” box to sort your search results by format, date, or location.

Your Account

You can check your library account, see what items you have checked out and when they are due, renew your items, view the status of any requests you have placed, and check whether you have any fines, all by using the library catalog online! Simply click on the “My Account” tab, and log in with your library card barcode and PIN number.

Requesting Items

You may request that an item be reserved for you, and sent to your local branch for you to borrow. You will simply need

• your library card barcode number, and
• your library PIN number. (What’s this?)

When you find the item you wish to request in the catalog, click on “Request Item” or “Request Any Copy.” You will be asked to enter your library card barcode number and PIN number, and to specify at which library you would like to pick up the item.

Stay in Touch
