OhioLINK Resource Changes
|
As the saying goes, "Everything is connected to everything else."
This is definitely true with the state budget in Ohio. Even though Ohio
Dominican University is a private institution, we both benefit from the
state budget in good times and suffer during the bad times. The ODU Library
budget is, in fact, intimately entangled with OhioLINK's budget (a state
entity). While the final decisions have been delayed until August this
year, please know that the package of resources available at our library
will be changing this August. We receive many databases, electronic journals,
electronic books, and more directly from OhioLINK. Your teaching and learning
could potentially be impacted by the final form our portfolio of resources
takes. If you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to contact
the Director of Library Services, Jim Layden, at laydenj@ohiodominican.edu.
