Biddle's online catalog contains information on books, journals and other print and electronic materials related to law in the Biddle collection.

Franklin
The online catalog of the University of Pennsylvania Library System contains information on books, journals and other materials held in the 13 other campus libraries. Please note that Franklin does not include materials held at Biddle, so these resources must be searched separately through LOLA.
Even more sources held by non-Penn libraries can be identified via OCLC WorldCat and borrowed through the interlibrary loan process.
