The FirstSearch/WorldCat Discovery subscription your library receives through the South Central Regional Library Council (SCRLC) enables your students, faculty and staff to search WorldCat through FirstSearch and WorldCat Discovery to find resources on nearly any topic in the collections of libraries in New York state and beyond. The subscription also gives your library visibility on WorldCat.org, to people who begin their searches on search engines and non-library websites that include Google Books, Google Scholar, Wikipedia, and Goodreads.

During current pandemic-related library closures, searchers can use FirstSearch and WorldCat Discovery, searchers to find electronic and digital resources in addition to physical materials that will be accessible again following the pandemic.
