Frequently Asked Questions
What is in the Local Catalog?
The Local Catalog represents the holdings of the Syracuse University
Library, the Barclay Law Library, and Moon Library at the SUNY College
of Environmental Science and Forestry. The Local Catalog lists books,
journals, maps, sound recordings, microforms, government documents, and
other materials in the collections of these libraries.
What is NOT in the Local Catalog?
The Local Catalog does not provide access to the contents of the
journals that the Libraries have in their collections. For subject access
to articles in periodicals such as journals, magazines, and newspapers
you will need to use a periodical index. See the Databases
Main Menu for a list of electronic indexes/databases.
Who can access the Local Catalog?
We do not restrict access to the Local Catalog. It is available to anyone
who visits the Library or who has access to the World Wide Web. Some library
services (such as recalls or other requests) may be restricted to current
students, faculty, and staff of Syracuse Unversity and the SUNY College
of Environmental Science and Forestry. These services require a username
and password.
