The list of books is called an index.
The word is "catalog" or "catalogue." It is a systematic list of books or resources available in a library, typically organized by author, title, subject, or other criteria for easy reference and retrieval.
A list or index of books in a library is generally known as a catalogue of the library's holdings. It can be in the form of a card catalogue, in which each book has an entry card for the author, the title, and the subject of the book. These cards are organised alphabetically, in the same way as words in a dictionary, and may be accessed by any library user. Library catalogues are usually computerised today, but are organised in the same way as the cards, and can be searched using the title, author, or subject of a book. In this way you can find how many books by any one author a library holds, or, how many books about any particular subject it might hold. Of course librarys also carry musical collections and many other items apart from ordinary books, and all these are listed in the catalogue too. Any item listed will have information as to where in the library the item is stored, either by using the numerical Dewy Decimal system, or, the combined numerical and alphabetical Library of Congress system of categorising library materials. The staff in a library are there to help you, so feel free to ask if you need assistance.
An alphabetically arranged list of books and materials in a library is called a catalog or library catalog. It serves as an organized inventory of the library's collection, allowing users to easily locate and access resources.
