Library Services Platform Upgrade
On June 25, 2025, the University of Cincinnati Libraries, in coordination with OhioLINK, upgraded the Library Services Platform (LSP) to Ex Libris Alma/Primo VE.
This cloud-based, enterprise system software is the backbone of day-to-day library operations (acquisitions, cataloging, circulation/fulfillment, etc.). The new interface is more user intuitive as students, faculty and other library users find and access library resources.
More details can be found on the FAQ. Check this page frequently for project updates.
Although we are working to minimize any disruption to services, the cut over to the new system will impact links to library collections, acquisitions and borrowing of print materials among other OhioLINK institutions. If you have any questions, please contact your subject librarian.
New Discovery Interface
OneSearch is the discovery interface that students, faculty and other library patrons use to find (and access) information in the library’s collection. Its user-friendly interactions is more user intuitive and similar to today’s consumer products.
