To search for a particular book or journal across Australia use Libraries Australia

To find a particular library within Australia, the Australian Libraries Gateway (AGL) links directly to the web pages and online catalogues of thousands of Australian libraries.

To find international libraries, use LibDex, the library index which indexes international library home pages and Web-OPACs. The AGL also provides overseas links.
