New Library Catalog
E. H. Butler Library has a new online catalog with expanded search capabilities. This
Web-based catalog, ALEPH 500, offers new options, including a choice of basic or
advanced search, the ability to view previous searches, and a link for quick access to
other SUNY library catalogs.
ALEPH 500, a fully integrated library system designed by Ex Libris, was unanimously
chosen by the SUNY Library Automation Migration Evaluation Team as the
SUNYConnect Library Management System. All SUNY libraries are expected to
implement ALEPH by 2006.
Search the new catalog at www.buffalostate.edu/library.
