Compiled by the librarians at the Fisheries-Oceanography Library, University
of Washington. This is not an exhaustive list but rather a starting point.
If you need help finding information, ask a librarian for assistance. (Note: The UW Libraries Catalog and NTIS on the Web are available to all. Only UW-affiliated users can access the other databases.)
UW LIBRARIES
CATALOG The Libraries Catalog includes the book and journal holdings
of all of the University of Washington Libraries collections. You can search
for materials by title words, author names, subject headings, and keywords.
Remember: the catalog will tell you if we own a journal but not about the
contents of the journal. The Catalog is NOT the database to use to identify
journal articles.
