Maps also cover the planets, moons, and constellations. Atlases are not only cartographical, geographical, or geological. There are atlases of mathematical functions, medical atlases of the body and its parts, and biological atlases of plants and animals. Used mostly in laboratories, guides help researchers perform tasks the same way each time, in the best and safest way possible. In addition, to library catalogs, there are catalogs or satellites, chemicals, and astronomical bodies.
Libraries have union lists of materials and where they can be found.
