Statewide Databases
New Jersey's Statewide Databases are helping to ensure equity of services for all residents of New Jersey. Through the support of statewide services such as JerseyCat, JerseyClicks .org, QandANJ.org and the New Jersey Knowledge Initiative, the State Library helps to ensure that all NJ libraries can offer their residents essential 24/7 services. Thanks to these services, our NJ residents have access to millions of full text articles; live reference help 24 hours a day from librarians via the Internet; and the combined borrowing power of over 800 libraries.

JerseyCat
JerseyCat is New Jersey's statewide virtual catalog and interlibrary loan system. It is provided to all libraries within the State of New Jersey by the New Jersey State Library and the Regional Library Cooperatives. There is no charge to the local library for the service. It provides all New Jersey residents and library staff with real-time searching capabilities for New Jersey's Z39.50 compliant library catalogs. It also includes a union catalog of holdings from the small to medium libraries that are under 100,00 volumes. Periodical titles can be searched for in the NJ Union List of Serials. It also provides New Jersey residents and library staff with an interlibrary loan system that they can use from their home, school, or office via the World Wide Web.

JerseyClicks
JerseyClicks is New Jersey's statewide portal that features federated searching of the suite of statewide full-text databases. Federated searching allows you to search more than one database at a time. If you want to search just one database you can click on the title of the database to go to EBSCO, GALE, or Proquest search interface. The choice is yours!
