Library Catalog

An online catalog is  an ongoing multi-year project, which began by cataloging  recently acquired items, and includes  select circulating items available for check-out by our students, faculty and parent organization staff for off-campus use, as well as Course Reserves, Journals, and Reiss-Davis Video collections which are available for on-campus use only. To  place holds and borrow items, you must have a Populi account.  Vista Del Mar staff can request an account from the Librarian.

If you are looking for a title not yet listed in the Online Catalog, contact the Librarian with the citation, or visit the library for some hands on  with a classic card catalog!

The UC Libraries

*IN NON-PANDEMIC TIMES*

RDGS encourages its students to make use of the public resources available at the State's public universities.

By going in-person to a UC library during normal business hours, you can access database computers that do not require a log-in. These computer tend to be standing-only, so come with a list of articles. You can use the UC Library online catalog to verify the presence of a particular journal volume in a database before you go. Note due to recent changes in policy, you will only be able to Print articles you wish to keep for future use, not save or email. See UCLA print procedure and fees.

If you wish to borrow on-shelf material from a UC Library, you can purchase an annual membership with library borrowing privileges.
