Summer Reading Club is over, and it's time to start thinking about E-Rate,
particularly if you have library branches.

OPLIN can make it easier on you, providing internet to your branches the
same way we do to your central library:

   1. You tell us the location where you need service and whether you need
   fiber or coax service.
   2. We contract with a service provider, pay the monthly bills, and file
   and collect the E-rate.
   3. You pay one bill to us for the year.

Get started by filling out the form on our website
<https://oplin.ohio.gov/branch-circuits>.

I know you'll have questions, and we're eager to answer them. The best
place to send them is branchcircuits at oplin.ohio.gov.

PS: This is for service in the next E-rate funding year starting July 2027,
so you're eligible if this is the last year of your contract, or you're
already on month-to-month. But if you've got a special circumstance (a new
location, a temporary facility during renovations, etc.) talk to us; we're
flexible and there are ways we can help.
