How to find publications?
-(Old) Catalogue : titles of books and journals within University of Groningen-PiCarta: All other libraries in the Netherlands.-PiCarta also gives articles, but you don’t know where they come from.
The new catalogue: SmartCat..› SmartCat is the new catalogue of Groningen UL.› You cannot only find book titles and titles of
journals but articles as well.› SmartCat searches through all electronic
databases that we pay for, but not as ‘deep’ as it is possible in those (bibliographic) databases themselves. It will give you fast first entrances.
› SmartCat will direct you to other locations when a title is not in Groningen. You could open an ILL (inter library loan) account.
