Dear Members of the SPU Community,
Beginning January 1, 2014, we will have a new search tool for finding materials in the SPU Library and Summit libraries. Our library is one of the 37 Summit libraries transitioning to this shared system, which will enhance the discovery and sharing of resources within the Orbis Cascade Alliance.
The new interface is similar to our current SPU WorldCat system and other search tools you may have used before: you search for books, articles, and more using a single search box and then select from various options to filter your results.
Here are some key changes to be aware of once the new system is live:
- The “Classic Catalog” and SPU WorldCat will be replaced by the new system after December 31. Learn more here.
- Signing in with your SPU username and password will maximize your search experience. Learn more here.
- You will see new “Get It” and “View It” tabs under each title to help you access and request items. Learn more here.
- Journals A-Z will become eJournals A-Z. Learn more here.
Additional information and guidance is available here.
If you have questions or feedback, please speak with the liaison librarian for your area or any member of the library staff.
Michael J. Paulus, Jr.
