From christine at oplin.ohio.gov Mon Apr 7 09:17:27 2025 From: christine at oplin.ohio.gov (Christine Morris) Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2025 09:17:27 -0400 Subject: [NORTHSTAR] Updates on Northstar Accounts and Access Message-ID: Greetings, We've seen a number of questions about Northstar lately. I will give you the best answers we have right now. First: don't worry too much about any email that warns you about an account deletion for "oh####@oplin.ohio.gov." It is basically telling us that the site-specific account administrator that OPLIN set up originally for your library has not been used. That's OK, because we have come to learn that our super-administrator logins can do the same thing that the local site administrators can do (and then some). We are not going to worry about logging in with that email to keep that specific user account live, and you don't need to worry about it either. That's the good news and the clearest part of the situation. The second most frequently asked question is about our statewide subscription. With regard to that, we are in the midst of a grant bid evaluation process that includes Northstar, so we are unable to negotiate further extensions at this time. However, we do not expect the access will be removed until those negotiations are complete. We are hoping for more information soon. I hope that helps, but please reach out if you have any additional questions. We will do our best to answer them.
