The Browse Monthly Catalog page allows you to browse through all the items in the catalog in the order in which they appear in the original volumes. You can access the page via the Browse link in the main navigation.

To browse the catalog, click the plus symbol to the left of the relevant year; the browse will expand to show all the issues that were published in that year. Then click the plus symbol to the left of the issue you are interested in. You can then choose whether to view the Front Matter (including corrections, general information, etc.) or Index for that issue, or the Monthly Catalog entries themselves. To view entries in the Front Matter and Index, click the plus sign next to the relevant section, then click a linked entry to view the Full Record.

To view entries from the Monthly Catalog itself, click the plus sign next to the 'Monthly Catalog' section; the browse will expand to show an alphabetical list of all departments whose documents are listed in that section. Clicking on the plus icon next to a department name displays a list of all the documents that department has published in that month and year. You can click a linked document title to go directly to the Full Record for that document.

If you have Adobe Reader installed on your computer, you can also view a PDF of a particular issue by clicking the PDF for this issue link that appears next to each issue in the Browse. Note that PDF pages open in a popup window.

If you are having difficulty viewing PDF files it may be because you have a popup blocker activated. Please disable your popup blocker or add this site to your trusted/allowed sites.

Alternatively, right click on the PDF link, choose one of the following menu options (depending on which browser you are using), and follow any prompts that may be displayed:

When you have expanded a level in the Browse Monthly Catalog page, the plus icon will change to a minus icon; you can click this to collapse a level in the hierarchy.

Once you have expanded the list, you can add Monthly Catalog entries in the Browse Monthly Catalog page to your Marked List by clicking the Add to Marked List checkbox below each entry in the list.
Note: You cannot add Index items to the Marked List.

If you want to link to the Browse Monthly Catalog page, you can click the Durable URL link at the right-hand side of the page. A panel will open displaying the URL; you can copy and paste it into your documents and email.
