Access Materials from Anywhere
You can search our catalog for books, ebooks, videos (DVDs and Streaming). You can immediately connect to online resources by entering your Ursuline email and password.
You can use Search OhioLINK button in the catalog if you want to expand your search from our holdings to those of the larger OhioLINK consortium. This is very useful if you need a book when our copy is unavailable, or if Ursuline Library does not own a specific book that you need.
Did you know that as Ursuline students you can borrow books and materials from any of the 120 Colleges and Universities that are part of OhioLINK just by showing your Ursuline College ID card at that library? You can also request to have OhioLINK books delivered to a library near you rather then pick them up at Ursuline. See the side bar for details.
Use reference books to get a broad overview of your topic!
Many reference books have a Table of Contents (in the front of the book) and an Index (in the back of the book). Search both of these places for your keywords to see what pages to turn to so you can read about your topic.
