We’ve received a lot of questions about renewing OhioLINK books this week. You can renew your OhioLINK books online, up to four times, as long as another user has not requested the item. Renewals can be made within seven days of the book’s due date. Here’s how:
1. Log on to your library record/account from the OSU library’s Web site.
2. Click on # items currently checked out.
3. Select the items you want to renew.
4. Click on “renew selected items.”
CDs, DVDs and videos requested through OhioLINK may not be renewed.

To reduce costs, the University Libraries deliver all library notices via e-mail to the OSU e-mail account of OSU students, faculty and staff. Mail coming into OSU e-mail accounts can be set to forward mail to a non-OSU e-mail address; instructions are available from The University Office of Information Technology.
Library users may also view their OSCAR records online at library.ohio-state.edu to learn the status of their checkouts and hold requests.
