At MU, two library catalogs are available to faculty, staff, and students.
The larger catalog is MOBIUS, which is self-described as consisting of " 59 academic libraries, 2 public libraries, and the Missouri State Library. The organization's purpose is to share library materials, information, and services using accessible, cost effective methods. Today, the MOBIUS Union Catalog has expanded to include more than 23 million items, serving over 750,000 people from the higher education community and the state of Missouri."
Discover Resources at MU Law includes the MU Law Library catalog and connects you with Missouri S & T, UMSL and UMKC (including UMKC Law) catalogs.
Not Just Books
Honestly, the MU Law Library catalog isn't just for books anymore. You'll find links to electronic resources in Westlaw, Lexis, HeinOnline, and other research databases.

Sometimes it is nice to know who to ask. Your library liaison is always a great person to ask, but you can always ask at the Reference Desk, or use our webpage to see who does what at the MU Law Library.
