WorldCat

WorldCat (short for "World Catalog") is the world's largest global catalog of library materials. Using WorldCat, you can see not only if Gonzaga owns an item, but also whether any Spokane-area libraries also own the item.

You can also use WorldCat to place a request for items that are not available locally or through Summit.

If a patron is looking for materials such as books or articles that are not available through Gonzaga or our Summit partners, WorldCat is a good next step to see if there's another way the patron might be able to get access to the resource.
