The library catalog contains entries for the books, journals, government documents, manuscripts, and audiovisual materials owned by Swem, other W&M campus libraries (Biology, Business, Chemistry, Geology, Law, Music, Philosophy, and Physics), the libraries of Colonial Williamsburg, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, and Richard Bland College (a college affiliated with W&M). Each entry contains descriptive information about an item such as title, author, publisher, publication date, call number, location, and related subject headings. Subject headings are useful to help you find additional titles on your topic.
Although the library catalog contains the journals we get, it does not give you citations to specific journal articles. In other words, this is not the place to go to identify articles in journals.
