SUNCAT: Serials Union Catalogue for the UK research community
- Find journals on Facebook
SUNCAT has created a search application which can be added to any
Facebook user profile. Once the application has been added, it is
possible to search for journals, held in over 60 UK research libraries,
within Facebook. Results are returned within the SUNCAT interface,
allowing users to refine or create more sophisticated searches. The
application is available at http://apps.facebook.com/suncat-search/
- Keeping SUNCAT current
As a location service for serials held in the UK it is important that
the information on SUNCAT is kept as current as possible. Over half of
the 66 Contributing Libraries are now updating their serials' records
regularly and the SUNCAT team are working with the remaining libraries
to set up a regular updating cycle. A new updates page at
http://www.suncat.ac.uk/description/currency.html details how frequently
libraries send updates to SUNCAT and also the date of their most recent
update. Details of the most recent updates are also now appearing on the
SUNCAT Blog at http://www.suncatblog.blogspot.com/
