FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions


What do I need to check out a book or other library material?
You need to have a valid MCC ID card.  No other form of identification will be accepted.

Does the Library carry the textbook for my class?
Since textbooks are so expensive, it would be impossible for the Library to purchase the textbook for every course the college offers. However, in some cases, Professors provide us with a copy of their course textbook so that we can place it on reserve at the Circulation/Reserve Desk. Students can then check the item out for the loan period specified by their Instructor (usually one or two hours).

Can I check out periodicals (magazines, journals or newspapers)?
Periodicals stay in the library but feel free to make copies of the pages you need using one of our photocopiers. Copies are .10 cents a page.
