Classic Library Catalog open access

WMU's Classic online catalog (also known as WestCat), is used to identify books (including electronic books), government documents, journals, audio and video, slides, music scores, and other items in the University Libraries' collections. The catalog can be searched by title, author, subject heading, keyword, call number, and more.

Librarian's Comment: To search our catalog by various foreign languages go to the Guided Keyword Search, select "More Limits," then scroll down until you find the box for foreign languages and choose the language you want to limit your search by. You can't get all the books in that language at once: you have to choose a subject to limit your search to.


WorldCat restricted

Comprehensive catalog of books and other materials in libraries around the world. Contains millions of records in hundreds of languages. Non-book materials include (among other publication formats) the titles of journals and magazines, manuscripts, maps, electronic resources, websites, computer programs, music scores, films, slides, sound recordings, conference proceedings, and videotapes. Items located through WorldCat must be requested through Interlibrary Loan unless they are also listed in the WMU Libraries catalog.

ResearchPath Tutorial open access

This newly revised interactive research skills tutorial covers the research process from start to finish. ResearchPath is divided into a series of video and audio modules and each ends with a quiz. Quiz results may be submitted to your instructor. Check with your instructor if the class or instructor's name is not listed.
