Catalogue searching
The Library Catalogue (opens in new window) helps you find everything available from the Library. It shows the books, journals, DVDs and course reserve material in both print and electronic form. You can search the catalogue by keyword, and title, author or subject. You can limit your results to campus location, format and topic. The catalogue will link you to other library catalogues (such as Flinders and Adelaide Universities), allow you to place hold requests and access your borrower record to renew items.
While the library catalogue lists the titles of the journals held by the library, it does not include each of the articles contained within individual issues. To find journal articles on your topic you will need to search the Databases.
If you have a reference to a specific article in a known journal you can use the Citation Findit (opens in new window) to see if the Library has it. It will most likely be available in fulltext.
