InterLibrary Loan Delays

Photograph of bookcases with old, colorful books. Text reads "InterLibrary Loans."

We are experiencing longer than normal wait times for InterLibrary hold items. The State Library of Ohio manages and coordinates the distribution of InterLibrary materials, recently switched delivery vendors. The new delivery service supplier, STAT Courier Service, Inc., faces a severe backlog of delivery items to libraries across the state, including the Piqua Public Library. Please be assured that the State Library of Ohio and STAT Courier Service are doing everything they can to resolve this issue as fast as possible.

The timeline for materials being delivered is unknown at this time. If you would like to try alternate formats of your materials, such as audiobooks or large print, our staff can help. Call or visit the Library and let us know what you are looking for. We encourage you to utilize our digital services to find books, movies, and more.
