• GLOCAT

  Our library's catalog, GLOCAT, is a user-friendly platform that simplifies your research process. The 'Advanced Search' feature allows you to narrow down your searches by material type and collections, making the process more manageable.

  This catalog is a valuable tool that can help you easily locate library collections from all over the globe.

Search Terms 

To help you find relevant information, it is essential to use specific terminology and subjects related to the field you're researching. Indexers and catalogers use such terms to classify information. You can make your search more efficient by changing the search filters from "Keywords" to "Subject" in GLOCAT and individual databases, then typing in your desired subject. If you're searching for music-related information, here is a list of terms by genre accepted by the Library of Congress and the Music Library Association.
