Hi Jo
Here at UHI our catalogue displays our resources, print and electronic - books and journals - via the catalogue.  The journals are more of an experiment at the moment as we have an E-Journal Gateway that we tend to refer people to.  The E-Books are put through the catalogue but we also have our e-books platforms listed on our "A-Z Online Resources" page as well as having a separate E-Books page.  It can be a bit of a hassle upkeeping them all, but we tend to think, at the moment, that multiple entry points have their uses.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Elizabeth

Hi all,
Here at the University of Wolverhampton, we are looking at the role that our static catalogue terminals play in our learning centres.

I hoped to gather some information regarding what other universities are doing by asking which of the following type of terminals are used at your institution:

1)  Catalogue terminals that reflect physical stock only - electronic resources are available elsewhere.

2)  Static catalogue terminals that display full records but do not allow access to electronic resources - if so, are there any future plans to change them?.

3)  Catalogue terminals that display full records AND allow access to all resources, including electronic resources via links.

I would be very grateful and eagerly await your responses on this, as I'm sure 'best practice' will prevail!!!

Kind regards

Jo Field
Resources Librarian, University of Wolverhampton
