Authenticating Through OPAL

On the OPAL Remote Authentication page, you will see the OPAL logo in the upper left corner and the words, "OPAL Database Remote Authentication Page--Authenticating as Findlay patron."

Proceed by typing in your LAST name and your 14-digit library barcode which is on the backside of your Oiler OneCard. Click on the title of the database you want to access. Go to OPAL Remote Authentication.

Authenticating Through OhioLINK

When you select the title of the database from the OhioLINK list of databases, the Institution Selection Form appears.

Proceed by choosing your institution (University of Findlay) and then typing in your name and your 14-digit library barcode on the backside of your Oiler OneCard. Some databases will not be accessible through OhioLINK authentication. Go to OhioLINK Databases.

If you have problems connecting through OhioLINK, review OhioLINK's Remote Authentication Help.

Library Barcode

If you do not have an Oiler OneCard, which has your 14-digit library barcode number printed on the backside, see Obtaining a Barcode.
