Introduction to library services for faculty.

If you are having trouble locating items you need in the library's collection, OhioLINK, or SearchOhio, expanding your search to the Beyond My Library scope will allow you to request items outside of these collections. Select the item you want, click "Get It," and fill out the form to request items.

For help finding resources, please contact a Reference librarian at refdesk@cscc.edu, 614-287-2460, or by visiting the library. 
If you have any questions regarding your requests, please contact our Interlibrary Loan department at ill-Group@cscc.edu.
