Catalogs, Indexes and other Databases

Catalogs

Library catalogs allow you to search for print and electronic resources within libraries. Columbia University has two catalogs, Pegasus (For Law Library resources) and CLIO (For Columbia Library resources). When conducting research in foreign investment, it is helpful to search in both catalogs to see the available options.

Pegasus
The Diamond Law Library's Catalog. To find law resources.
CLIO
The University Libraries' Catalog. Can be used to find resources at Columbia University libraries (law and non-law).
WorldCat
The catalog to find books beyond the Columbia system.

Indexes

Periodical and treatises indexes are tools which allow you to find periodicals, articles and treatises around a topic. You are often able to search or browse by topic, author, keyword or other metrics.
