KENTUCKY UNION LIST OF SERIALS
About KULS:
The Kentucky Union List of Serials (KULS) is a compilation of 184,500 serial
holdings from over 170 libraries throughout Kentucky.
KULS is funded
by a LSTA, Title III sub-grant from The Kentucky Department for Libraries
and Archives (KDLA) to the University of Louisville.
Publications which are appropriate for the KULS database include
publications in any medium or format issued in successive parts. Monographs
are generally not included in the union list.
In 1971 the Kentucky Union List of Serials was founded as a cooperative
venture between the Information Referral Center of the University of
Louisville and the Kentucky Department of Libraries and Archives. Until
1992 the list was maintained on a local database program in order to
produce microfiche catalogs for interlibrary loan applications.
Between 1992 and 1998 the KULS database was moved to OCLC's Union Listing
Module. With the completion of this project the union listing records of
participating Kentucky libraries can be accessed through OCLC cataloging and
interlibrary loan systems. Since the fall of 1997 these records can also be
accessed via OCLC's FirstSearch family of resources.
The KULS project is currently using several different reporting
options for participating libraries to forward their serial holdings to
the KULS office.
