Library Catalogs

People can use the Internet to search library catalogs. However, to check out materials, you will either need to have borrower privileges or fill out an Interlibrary Loan form. You can search from a number of catalogs. A selection of catalogs is listed below.

Chemeketa Catalogs

For further information on Summit, see Summit Help.You may start a search in Summit, or go to the Chemeketa Library Catalog and pass your search through to Summit using the Search Summit button. Because Chemeketa is a member of the Orbis Cascade Alliance, Chemeketa students taking at least one credit hour and Chemeketa employees may request items in Summit and have them sent to the most convenient Summit pick-up location.
