How do I get a library card?
-
Your student card is also your Library card. You can get your student card from Student Services.
-
Only current students can use the Library.
-
Each semester, go to Student Services for a new semester sticker.
How many books can I borrow?
You can borrow up to 30 books at a time from our Main (non-fiction), CC Reads, and ESL collections.
You can borrow up to 2 textbooks and other reserve books at a time.

Once maximum fines have been reached, you will be charged the replacement cost. Your account will be blocked if you have $25.00 or more in outstanding fines. Make sure to settle your library fines each semester--if your account is blocked, you may not be able to borrow additional books, register for courses, or graduate.
