Description of Library Catalog

The Library Catalog is a catalog of resources the library owns (such as books or videocassettes) and resources to which the library subscribes (such as databases or magazines).  Therefore, it serves as an inventory of the library's collections (whether in print or other media) and gives items' locations so you can find them (physically in the library or remotely through a Web link). Search for items by author, title, keyword,  Library of Congress subject heading, etc.

You may also search the catalogs of other libraries in the South Dakota Library Network by selecting the desired library or selecting all the libraries at one time by choosing "All SDLN libraries" in the drop-down Library menu.  See SDLN home page -- to learn about the SD Library Network.

INSTRUCTIONS: After clicking on the link to Library Catalog,

1. If a login screen displays, click the "Guest" button to get to a search screen (login is not necessary when just searching the catalog).
2. Use the "Change Library" dropdown menu to select the library you want to search.
3. Enter your search.
