About the Library

The Library is full-service, yet provides a comfortable place to read, do research, and study. We are committed to providing equal service to on-campus and online students. The Library has more than 70,000 books, which can be accessed through an online catalog, and approximately 200 periodical subscriptions. A variety of online reference databases are available as well as World Wide Web access to resources on the Internet. Computerized access and reciprocal agreements also allow the HCCC Library to borrow needed materials from other libraries for students. These agreements help to expand the quality and quantity of information available to students.

Librarians are available to assist students and faculty most hours the Library is open. Their primary function is to assist and teach users how to navigate the often-complex world of information. They also provide introductions to Library resources through scheduled tours, workshops, courses, and one-on-one instruction.

The Library is located on the second and third floors in the Library Building. During the Spring and Fall semesters, it is open Sunday through Friday.
