The Akron-Summit County Public Library is joining over 100 Ohio public libraries in distributing free COVID-19 test kits while supplies last. Provided by the Ohio Department of Health, the 15-minute Abbott BinaxNOW COVID-19 Ag Card Test is for at-home COVID-19 testing only, in conjunction with a free telehealth session provided by eMed proctors.

While the test is free of charge, you will need Internet access and one of the following devices with a camera and microphone:

• A computer
• A tablet
• A smartphone

Kits are limited to four per Outside Pick-Up appointment and are will be available at all Akron-Summit County Public Library locations beginning June 28.

Please call ahead and schedule your pick-up appointment to ensure availability.

Customer questions specifically about the testing process can be answered by calling eMed Customer Support at 844-943-0061.
