SCC Library Now Offering Curbside Pickup During Closure
Curbside pickup is now available for the borrowing of books and other materials through the SCC Library!

The process is more restricted than in normal times (you can't browse the shelves) but we're working hard to make items available to you. You can find items to borrow using OneSearch on the library's website.

Materials may be returned using the Book Return boxes located behind or in front of the SCC Library.
