What does RamCat do?

As previously stated, RamCat tells you what the Library owns. In this way, it is like a menu at a restaurant. A menu tells you what the Restaurant serves; RamCat tells you what the Library owns. However, a menu does not tell you every single ingredient in a dish. RamCat is the same; it DOES NOT tell you the ingredients of magazines, journals, or newspapers -- e.g. articles. Therefore, if you don't know which magazines, journals, or newspapers already have articles on your topic, DO NOT use RamCat. However, if you are looking for books or entire journals that might have information on your topic, or already know an issue of a periodical that has an article on your subject, use RamCat.

Hint: RamCat tells you if the Library has the whole enchilada; it does not tell you all of the ingredients in the enchilada.
