This guide provides information about Denison Libraries' move to Primo, our new integrated library system launching in June 2025. Find updates, key dates, and resources to help you navigate the transition.
Denison Libraries do not charge fines for most overdue materials. However, patrons may receive a bill for failing to return an item. If something unusual happens, like a lost book or system delay, our team will help resolve it on a case-by-case basis. We encourage all users to return items on time.
Notices and Reminders
Automated notices (e.g., due date reminders, overdue notices, and pickup alerts) will continue through the legacy systems until they are retired.
Please note that notices may be delayed or reflect incomplete information during the manual tracking window between June 10–25, 2025. If you’re unsure about the status of an item, reach out (libprimo-group@denison.edu); we’re here to help.
Checkouts, Holds, and Account Activity
Will my loans transfer to the new system?
Your Denison item checkouts will carry over automatically into Primo. OhioLINK and CONSORT loans will not transfer automatically and need to be returned. If any follow-up is needed, we’ll contact you directly, and we’re happy to help.
Can I still view my account?
You can log in to MyCONSORT through June 10 to check your due dates and fines.
After June 10, new loans may not appear in your account, as circulation will be managed manually during the transition.
The only exception is a pause in OhioLINK borrowing, which will take place from May 23 through June 27, 2025. During that window, we encourage you to use Interlibrary Loan to request materials.
What to Expect During the Transition
The move to Primo involves some behind-the-scenes work that will temporarily affect how library accounts and borrowing are processed. This section outlines what to expect between now and the system launch on June 27, 2025, and what we’re doing to support you during the transition.
