Need to return Library materials? No late fees or fines will be charged for the remainder of the fall semester. If you have items to return, you may use the outdoor book drop, next to the front door of the LIB building on the Central Campus. Or simply bring the items in during our opening hours.

In order to preserve the health and safety of our students and staff, the SCC Library will be operating under recommended guidelines for social distancing and cleanliness. Please note that the library will be adhering to the following procedures:



       •   Students are required to wear masks while using the library. If you do not have a mask, please ask library staff to provide one.
       •   Only SCC students, faculty, and staff will be allowed in the library at this time.
       •   Library patrons should disinfect their own computer/workspace with the provided alcohol wipes before and after each use.
       •   Study rooms are currently open on a first come, first served basis. Students must clean their computer/workspace before after using the study room.
       •   Please use only the computers without the yellow signs and maintain a distance of six feet or more from other students and staff.
       •   The printer at the Central Campus Library is now located at the Circulation Desk. After sending print jobs to the printer, please see Library staff to release your copies from the print queue.
       •   Library staff are still available for assistance with research, MLA and APA formatting, and other services. Please ask for help at the circulation desk.

       •   Headphones are not currently available. Please supply your own.
       •   Library loan services (PASCAL Delivers and Inter-Library Loan) are now available. Ask Library staff or see this post for instructions on requesting materials.

       •   Library materials may be returned at any time in the outdoor drop box at the Central Campus Library.
       • Some library material/equipment may be unavailable during this time.
