LUBcat is the shared catalogue for the libraries at Lund University. In the catalogue, you can find books and journals - both printed and electronic - dissertations, reports, movies, music scores and audio recordings. There, you can also see at which library, and on which shelf, the material is located, as well as whether it is available. When logged in, you can view your loans, queue for checked-out books and reserve material. Click on Shelf Locations to read more about how the books at the Asia-, LUX- and SOL Library are organised.

Via LUBsearch, you can find books and ebooks as well as articles and journals. You can do a quick search in the search box on the main page, and then limit your search results, by selecting Books or eBooks under Material Types. You can also choose to search in e-Publications which you can find in the top left hand corner of the LUBsearch page. In ePublications, you can find all e-books and e-journals that the Lund University Libraries have purchased or subscribe to.
