Why Use the Columbus State Catalog?

Our Library Catalog provides value-added services.

The catalog provides the ability to:
1. place a hold on an item
2. manage your library account
3. identify course reserves
4. access a book's status
5. browse by call number


While these apps use information provided by WorldCat, which includes the Columbus State library's holdings, there are still some items that are not tracked by WorldCat. These items include many electronic resources, including ebooks and subscription databases, as well as any special collections maintained by the library. Update schedules for WorldCat records could cause some delay; therefore, the Columbus State Catalog will always provide the most current information.
