Lists items owned by all campus libraries. ROGER lists books, government publications, journals, newspapers, maps, music scores, sound, film and video recordings, computer files, dissertations, etc. However, do not search ROGER for journal articles; search the appropriate database for journal articles.

Lists items owned by all University of California campus libraries. The Melvyl catalog lists books, government publications, journals, newspapers, maps, music scores and recordings, movies, computer files, dissertations, etc. held by the libraries of the nine UC campuses, Hastings College of the Law, the California Academy of Sciences, the California Historical Society, the Center for Research Libraries, the Graduate Theological Union, and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
The Circuit: Catalog for UCSD, SDSU, USD & CSUSM Libraries
Lists books owned by UCSD, San Diego State University, University of San Diego, and California State University, San Marcos.
