Important...

We have one Catalog at SJU---but we have two interfaces for searching it:

  • Classic Catalog
  • Discovery Catalog


 

When you locate a resource in the catalog:

  • Click the title to go to the full record. Make a note of the call number and the floor where the book is located.

  • Once you locate the book in the Library, browse around that area for other resources on the same subject.

 


When a book is not available:

  • If we own the book, but it is currently on loan to another patron, request it from E-ZBorrow.

The Discovery Catalog is best used when searching for a topic by keyword. 

  • If you are searching for a phrase, put the words in quotes (i.e., "capital punishment").
  • Use the navigation panel on the right to refine your search by publication type, author, date, etc.
  • Use the word cloud on the left to broaden your search.
