National Library Catalogues Worldwide Hosted by the University of Queensland Library, this site lists national library catalogues alphabetically by country. Some catalogues are not available twenty-four hours a day, so if you cannot gain access, it may be necessary to try again at another time. Note also that many national libraries have not yet automated all records for their earlier acquisitions, so these catalogues cannot be regarded as a definitive guide to earlier publications. Speak to a SAIS Librarian about tools that will help you identify older materials.
