The essentials
at national level: the SUDOC catalog
The SUDOC catalog enables bibliographic searches to be carried out on the collections of French university libraries and other higher education establishments, for all types of document. For periodical collections, it has been extended to include more than 2,000 other French documentation centers. It enables you to locate documents in these libraries. The Directory of Resource Centers, which completes it, describes the conditions of access to each of them.
Documents from the SCDBU of the Université de Savoie are listed in the SUDOC. However, as with other libraries, it is necessary to check the information concerning their availability in the library catalog: this is because the SUDOC is not synchronized for this type of information with the libraries' local systems, which are the only ones able to be up to date since they manage loans.
The description of this resource
locally: Lectura Plus
Lectura Plus is the result of the merger of Lectura (the joint portal for the central cities of the former Rhône-Alpes region) and Mémoires et actualités en Rhône-Alpes (the portal for the written and graphic heritage of the former Rhône-Alpes region), and is the portal for the written and graphic heritage of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. It provides simultaneous access to digitized content from the heritage collections of the cities of Annecy, Bourg-en-Bresse, Chambéry, Clermont-Ferrand, Grenoble, Lyon, Roanne, Saint-Etienne and Valence: old press, image galleries, virtual exhibitions, and descriptions of the region's heritage collections.
