Find an article/journal (electronic)

How do I find a book or magazine? In the catalogueTo search the catalog, you must be in possession of bibliographic references. Beforehand you must perform a search by subject/matter in the legal databases available at the library (Jura, Strada lex, Jurisquare). Demonstration in pictures 1°) Enter one or more terms (title word, author,...) in the search bar of the Catalogue of the libraries of the University of Namur. Feel free to use quotation marks for less noise.2°) You get a list of results sorted by relevance. These can then be filtered using facets. If you select several values within a facet, the "OR" operator is applied EXCEPT for the "Author" and "Subject" facets, which apply the "AND" operator to refine the search.Select only physical resources or online resourcesDocument types: sort by number of occurrences.Book, text encompasses both books in paper and electronic format.Periodical encompasses both journals in paper and electronic format.Electronic resourceincludes only electronic referencesOther types of documents available: memoir, comic strip, video, thesis, maps and atlases, score, sound document, editorial collection, article, object...Please note, Open Access references in the UCL Institutional Directory are also included in the catalog>adding new document types: conference paper, working paper, contribution to a collective work, report, preprint, patent...Author: authors are classified by number of occurrences with a limit of 50.Library:"UNamur-Droit": includes all documents available at the CRIDS law library and documentation center. Sublocations: "Library" or "CRIDS" or "VS" include some of our collections.Language: sorted by number of occurrences.Year of publicationSource : gives you the provenance of a record (depending on the type of document, librarians encode references in different tools)Catalog = Physical resourcesDial.pr = UCL institutional repositoryDial.ebook = Electronic bookKBeserial = Electronic periodicalKBdatabase = DatabaseTip: if you don't want to see Open Access references from the UCL institutional repository, you can deselect "Dial.pr".Status: Available, on loan, at the lending desk, in transit...Beware, there's a Bug for the statuses "at the lending desk" and "in transit": filters by libraries and institutions don't work.3°) To obtain detailed information about a document (such as storage rating, location...), you need to click on the TITLE from the results list. The detailed view contains information under different tabs:Obtain:Displays library copies with location, shelfmark, copy category (borrowable, non-borrowable, to consult on site) and status (available, return expected on+date, on order, out of inventory,...).Description: Contains detailed bibliographic information about the document.Notes1°) This new system is under development and certain functionalities will be added progressively (export of a list of results, facet by year,....)2°) Be attentive to the location, this must start with UNamur-Droit (Bibliothèque/CRIDS/VS), otherwise the work is available in another campus library.3°) For journals, you can also consult the alphabetical list of journals.4°) A mention of availability accompanied by a "Green" or "Red" colored dot appears in the list of results.Available + Green lozenge means that the work is on the shelves and appears both on borrowable, non-borrowable, for on-site consultation and for electronic resources.Not available + Red dot: appears for borrowed works, works on order, missing from inventory, binding and cataloguing.Beware, "Not available" also appears on some periodical records.
