The NEW Powersearch!
The Library is currently soft-launching a new version of PowerSearch at http://lbdiscover.ust.hk, which integrates the Library Catalog together with the Primo Central index.  This means that by using a single search box, you will discover articles and scholarly materials from a billion e-resources indexed by Primo Central, and also locate physical and electronic items held in the Library Catalog.
 
Primo Central is a rich index of article-level content from a wide variety of publishers and database aggregators. It includes e-journal articles, e-books, news articles, and more.  And thanks to the linking mechanism (OpenURL Resolver) that the Library has been diligently maintaining, you will have immediate access to the full-text of the articles and e-books if they are subscribed to by the Library.
 
When finally released in the coming few months, the new PowerSearch will supersede the current Library Catalog interface known as SmartCAT.  In addition to locating the Library Catalog items, the new interface will also enable you to request library items, renew checked-out books and view “My Account”, all within the PowerSearch interface.
