WorldCat.org - Find Books in Local Libraries


To find books in local libraries wherever you are, try WorldCat.org. It allows you to search library holdings by zip code. Many libraries are already added to this site.
Looking for books in ITP Library? We are planning to be added to Worldcat. org some time in 2007 if it is approved. You can always use the library catalog at http://libcat.itp.edu to view our holdings and check on availability.
UPDATED! I updated the link to our library catalog and thousands of our holdings can now be found by searching Worldcat.
