The UW Libraries Catalog is also considered a bibliographic database. It differs from databases such as CINAHL and PubMed by the level of publication type indexed. CINAHL and PubMed index at the article level so you are able to identify specific articles within journals that match your search terms. The library catalog indexes at a broader publication type. One is able to search the catalog and identify larger bodies of work on a given topic including books, journals, videos, etc.
The catalog record shows if online access to the journal is available. It also shows where the item is located.
