IUCAT Library Catalog

To find books and media, use IUCAT, the online catalog of the Indiana University Libraries. IUCAT provides access to print and online books and periodicals, recordings, DVDs and streaming videos, U.S. government publications, and other materials available here at IU 51ÁÔÆæ as well as at the other libraries in the IU system.

OneSearch

OneSearch provides access to the majority of IU 51ÁÔÆæ Library's resources. Rather than searching in IUCAT for books, Academic Search Complete or JSTOR for peer-reviewed journal articles, and Gale Virtual Reference Library for encyclopedia entries, you can do one search in OneSearch and retrieve results for all types of materials. OneSearch provides access to journal, magazine, and newspaper articles, books and e-books, government documents, DVDs and streaming videos, and more. 

The default search in OneSearch will return only items that are either available through an IU 51ÁÔÆæ subscribed database or are available in the IU 51ÁÔÆæ Library; however, you can modify this to include citations and abstracts as well (using the Limiters on the results page). Guest access is available for non-IU 51ÁÔÆæ students, faculty, and staff.

Government Publications

The Government Publications webpage provides access to print and online information published by federal, state, and international governmental organizations. Many of these resources are available through as well.

The IU 51ÁÔÆæ Library is a congressionally designated depository for U.S. Government documents. Public access to the government documents collection is guaranteed by public law (Title 44 United States Code).

Reference Resources

From dictionaries and encyclopedias to statistical almanacs and style guides, the Reference Resources webpage provides sources for finding quick facts, statistics, dates, biographical information, broad subject overviews, and other useful information.

Library Instruction

The Library Instruction Program at Indiana University 51ÁÔÆæ seeks to support the educational programs of the University by providing effective, relevant, student-centered instructional services.
