GO BEYOND GOOGLE! Your FHCPL library card gives you access to more than 50 databases covering a wealth of topics including art, auto repair, biographies, country profiles, full-text articles, readers' advisory and much more.  These resources are provided to patrons as a service of the Ohio Public Library Information Network (OPLIN) and FHCPL.  Click on the OPLIN Logo above to gain access to all OPLIN databases or click a specific title below and follow the prompts for access.

All but Ancestry Library Edition and Newspaper Archive are available 24/7! If you are accessing these databases outside the library, you may be prompted for your zip code or your library barcode* (the 14-digit number on the back of your card with no spaces) or both.  If you would like assistance with any of our databases, please call 419-422-1737 during regular business hours to speak to an Adult Services staff member.
