Cataloging is done through the OCLC system, an international bibliographic database with over 60 million records. New items are added daily to LIUCAT, the library's online catalog.
LIUCAT is a union catalog and contains records for holdings at all LIU campuses. Approximately 85% of Brooklyn’s holdings are accessible through LIUCAT. Retrospective conversion of the remaining titles continues on a regular schedule.
The Cataloging Department is part of the Technology and Information Services division.
