Melvyl Catalog

Next-Generation Melvyl Pilot Project

  • The pilot Next-Generation Melvyl goes live on May 19.
The UC Libraries will soon launch a potential replacement for the Melvyl Catalog. We encourage you to test this pilot, called Next-Generation Melvyl, and offer feedback via the link at the bottom of its page.

Some key points:

  • The existing Melvyl catalog is not going away!
  • Throughout the pilot, the current Melvyl Catalog and all its functionality will be maintained and available as usual.
  • Note: not all current library holdings are represented in the pilot.
  • Through a single interface Next-Generation Melvyl searches holdings in:
    • all UC Libraries
    • libraries around the world
    • UC books digitized by Google
  • Results display UCSB records first, then UC records, then records from other libraries worldwide.
  • Users can request items held elsewhere, both within the UC system and beyond.
  • Note: The release date has been changed to May 19
