UC Libraries now offers "Click & Collect" at specific locations

Users can now access print collections held at specific UC Libraries locations using Click & Collect. You can put books on hold but you must go to the specific library to pick up your books. Health Sciences Library (Donaldson) and Walter C. Langsam Library are two of several libraries in the system that now offer this service.

Please note: OhioLINK is still closed so you cannot have books delivered to the Pratt Library at this time.
