About SCAD Libraries Search

The Catalog Plus search tool allows you to conduct a quick and comprehensive search across the majority of the library's collections - books, videos, and e-resources such as articles, theses, ebooks, and SCAD digital collections, such as the Don Bluth Animation collection.
