WorldCat

WorldCat is provided by OCLC Online Computer Library Center on behalf of its member libraries and searches the collections of over 10,000 libraries and some 1.2 billion items from around the world.

You can search for books, foreign language material, music CDs, videos, digital content (such as downloadable audiobooks), article citations (with links to their full text), authoritative research materials (such as documents and photos of local or historic significance) and digital versions of rare items that aren't available to the public.

WorldCat allows you find an item of interest and then locate library/s that own it. Usually you will link directly to the item record on that particular library's website.

Also, on the WorldCat page for a particular item, you can enter a rating and review under the 'Reviews' tab and contribute factual notes or a book's table of contents under the 'Details' tab. Note that only you can modify or delete your own review, but other users can edit information that has been contributed under Details (similar to Wikipedia).

Although the basic item identifying information on the website can fulfill most needs, WorldCat at your library includes extra features such as: Advanced search; 'Find similar items'; and Links to published reviews and excerpts.
