Libraries

The UMass Library Online Catalog.
Other Libraries via CARL.
To get to Mass. libraries, first enter your terminal type (5 for xterms). Then, select CARL Systems Library Catalogs (8), followed by Eastern U.S. (35), then C/W Mars (63).
A search at this point will look in all the Mass. libraries which are connected via CARL. You can choose (2) Other C/W MARS Library Catalogs to see a listing of all the CARL participating libraries in the area. [Of course, you can search anywhere in the USA via this method, just choose a different number.]
To leave the system, type "//exit" twice at any point.
