Did you know that the library has textbooks*?

It’s true! We have at least one copy of each textbook sold in the bookstore that costs more than $40. The book is always kept in the library at the circulation desk on the first floor. You can come in to use the book, take notes, make copies, or scan pages anytime during library hours. You just can’t take it home with you.

Did you know that it is also possible for us to get books you need that the library does not own?

One way is for you to request that the library buy a copy using our Suggest a Purchase form. The other way is to request the book from another library using I-Share or Interlibrary Loan.

These services are available to all Columbia College Chicago students, faculty, and staff.
