Featured resource: WorldCat.org
WorldCat.org is the world's largest combined library catalog, listing over 1 billion items in 10,000 libraries, including about 75% of the materials in the UC Berkeley libraries. Also included are 30 million journal and magazine articles from the ArticleFirst, ERIC (education), and Medline databases.
WorldCat.org shows which nearby libraries own a particular item, and lets you generate or export citations, add your own notes or reviews, and save items in personalized lists. For all these reasons, we recently added a link to Worldcat.org on the library homepage.

Bulletin of the AMS archive online
From the American Mathematical Society (AMS) News 2007: "Readers may now view online the first century of the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, from 1891 to 1991, searchable and fully integrated with the modern Bulletin [more…]."
The archive (1891-1991) is also freely available at Project Euclid. It was digitized by the Digital Mathematics Library Project of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI), with funding from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. The Mathematics Statistics Library at Berkeley also donated one of its sets of the Bulletin to this worthwhile project.
