The Learning Resources Centre is pleased to announce our new catalogue, WorldCat Local.

WorldCat Local allows you to search for books across both Carmarthen and Lampeter campus libraries, and will soon also allow you to search for electronic books, journals and articles. WorldCat Local also offers an improved graphical user interface with book cover illustrations, enhanced limiting options and links to other libraries worldwide.

To try WorldCat Local, please choose the link below for your campus. WorldCat Local will search for resource across all our libraries, but will prioritise results for the campus that you choose:
Carmarthen Campus: http://tsd-c.worldcat.org
Lampeter Campus: http://tsd-l.worldcat.org

At present we are testing WorldCat Local, and not yet all our data is available to search. If you can't find what you are looking for, our old HIP and Voyager catalogues are still available to search at http://www.tsd.ac.uk/en/lrc/catalogue/. 

Please note that, as with our current catalogues, the WorldCat Local interface is currently only available in English. WorldCat Local will search for Welsh language resources and we are currently in discussion with the supplier to develop a Welsh language interface.
