The USGS Library database includes over 225,000 records for books, journals, maps, microforms, videocassettes, CD-ROMS, and pamphlets. Online citations describe items that have been added to the library since 1975 plus all of the publications of the USGS. The catalog identifies how many copies of each title are in the collection, where the copies are located, and whether they are currently charged out or available.
