These are provided through a wide variety of sources, including OCLC’s FirstSearch, CSA, Science Direct, Project MUSE, EBSCOhost, Dialog@CARL, the Florida Heritage project and the Bryant Collection, to name only a few.

UW-Madison has one of the 10 largest library systems in the United States, and its collections (more than six million volumes, four million microfilm items, and hundreds of thousands of government documents, maps, musical scores, and audiovisual and other materials) are distributed across more than 40 campus locations. Students and faculty can search millions of library catalog records in MadCat, the online library catalog, to find a book or journal, learn where it is, and see if it is checked out. Users can also search 30 million citations in journal and information databases.
