OSU Students, Faculty, and Staff can find out about physical items available from the OSU-Cascades Library, as well as the Valley Library and the Guin Library, either online or in person.
Look for the "Request OSU's Copy" link in 1Search to submit your request. Visit 1Search now
If you are looking for an item not available at any of the OSU Libraries, you can request Summit items through 1Search or you can place an InterLibrary Loan request.
You can log into 1Search here and you can find Interlibrary Loan here.
Course Reserves are textbooks that can be found at the Library Front Desk and check out for varying time periods. You can find a list of this term’s Course Reserves through FirstSearch, on our Course Reserve page, or by stopping by the Front Desk to speak with a staff member to see what is available.
Do you have current textbooks that you don't need anymore? We accept donations of current textbooks!
OSU-Cascades Library Course Reserves can be viewed in 1Search here.
Tip: Include "Cascades" when searching for your course to see only Cascades items (ie. Cascades COMM 321).
The OSU-Cascades Library has equipment like headphones and laptops available for loan. You can find a list of available equipment through FirstSearch or you can stop by the Front Desk to speak with a staff member to see what is available.
OSU General Collection Items can be renewed if no other library users have placed a request on the item. Renewals can be done through your FirstSearch account or you can visit the Library Front Desk to have a staff member assist you.
OSU, Summit, and InterLibrary Loan items can all be returned to the Library Front Desk during our open hours. When the Library is closed, a book drop is available outside our Front Door.
Please be aware that all OSU General Collection Items are subject to being recalled if another library user requests them. If an item you have checked out is recalled, you will be notified via email.
FirstSearch is where you can track your library loans, renew items, check due dates, and request more items. Once you have logged in, you can access your account by clicking on your name in the top right corner and selecting “My Account.”
