Denison Libraries has upgraded to a new library system. On June 27, 2025, we launched Primo, a faster, simpler way to search, borrow, and explore library resources. This new platform replaced the older systems you may have used before: Summon, the CONSORT catalog, the OhioLINK catalog interface, and separate search tools for digital collections.
With Primo, everything is in one place.
What Changed and Why
We moved from multiple disconnected platforms to a unified search system that brings together books, articles, media, and digital resources, both at Denison and across OhioLINK, into a single, user-friendly experience.
Behind the scenes, we also transitioned to Alma, a next-generation system that helps us manage resources more efficiently and continue providing excellent service.
These changes are part of a broader effort across the OhioLINK and Five Colleges of Ohio (Ohio5) library communities to streamline services and better support teaching, learning, and research.
