Library Services

The principal responsibility of the Columbia Basin College Library is to provide information resources and services that advance the mission of the College. The library develops and integrates resources in a variety of formats, utilizing technologies that provide broad access to information in support of the curriculum of the college. The library provides research and instructional services to foster students' ability to think critically about their information needs and successfully apply information tools and resources to meet them. 

The 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 Library’s facilities and resources are intended for use by current 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 students, faculty and staff. Limited access is provided for other community visitors, dependent first upon student and employee needs.

网赌正规真人实体在线平台 Librarians are available through the chat below Monday to Thursday from 8 am to 4 pm and Friday from 8 am to 12pm. Non-网赌正规真人实体在线平台 librarians are available 24/7!

Course Reserves

Course Reserves include books, articles and other items that instructors reserve for individual courses.

Most course reserve items are limited to in-library use only, but some may have one-day, three-day, or one-week loan period, depending on the instructors' directions. Our staff will be happy to help you determine the policy for individual items.

Textbooks

We try to have as many required textbooks as we can available for you. These are highly used items, so most of them can’t leave the library—but we do have free scanners!

Starting the third week of each quarter, the library is able to provide certain textbooks to all students. Check the availability of your textbooks at the front desk.

eReserves

Can't come to campus? Check library eReserves to see if chapters of your textbooks are available online.

If you cannot afford your textbooks, please reach out to your instructors who can work with you to find alternative solutions.

If you need financial assistance, please visit the Money for You page, the Well-Being Resource page and the 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 Foundation.

Computers and WiFi

Each 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 Library location has a computer lab available for current students. For the most recent information on available student technology, including wifi access areas, please see this Technology Services page.

Laptops

Laptops are available for current students to borrow for one month at a time and cannot be reserved in advance. 

Need a laptop? Come see us at the Front Desk!
