WisCAT![]()
WisCat is the statewide bibliographic database for Wisconsin. It contains 6.7
million bibliographic records with local holdings statements for 1,270
libraries of all types throughout Wisconsin. The libraries listed in WISCAT
are willing to loan many of the materials through established statewide
interlibrary loan channels. If you want to obtain an item listed in WISCAT,
make a printout of the record and take this printout to your local public
library or to a school, academic, or other type of library you are eligible
to use. Ask the library staff in that library to obtain the materials
through interlibrary loan. Do not directly contact the library listed, if it
is not your local library or if you are not eligible to use it directly.
Libraries are governed and funded by many different types of agencies and
jurisdictions, and most will not be able to serve you by mailing materials
directly to your home, office, or other location. If you have questions,
contact your local public library for information on interlibrary loan
policies in your area.
