What is a catalog?
A library catalog is a listing of all the items held by that library. It will pull up books, movies, video games, journal articles, digital content, and so much more.
If you know it, you can search for an item by it's title or author. BUT you can also search just using a keyword.
Alvin Sherman Library's Catalog can be found in multiple ways:
- use the url novacat.nova.edu
- OR visit sherman.library.nova.edu and click "Catalog Only" under the Shark Search.
Broward County Public Library's Catalog is separate from ours and can be found at: https://www.broward.org/Library/Pages/Default.aspx
NovaCat Search Tips:
Use the library's catalog to search for materials such as books, ebooks, DVDs, etc., by keyword, author, or title. Click on an entry on the results list to view an item's availability, location, and call number.
