The Serials Union Catalogue, or SUNCAT, was a freely available source of information about serials holdings in the United Kingdom, for the UK research community.[1]
For both electronic and print serials, including academic journals, periodicals, newspapers, newsletters, magazines etc.[2] SUNCAT contained data from over 90 UK research libraries, including the British Library and the National Libraries of Scotland and Wales.[3]
SUNCAT was an EDINA service, and was funded by Jisc. It ran on Ex Libris' Aleph 500 Library Management System.[4]
On 31 July 2019,[5] SUNCAT, Copac, CCM Tools and the RLUK database were dismissed and replaced by three new services: Library Hub Discover, Library Hub Compare, and Library Hub Cataloguing.[6][7]
