Here is some interesting information and facts from the library!

During the summer quarter reserve materials were checked out by students 1,485 times. This fall, the Library has 153 copies of 99 different textbooks for 76 courses available on reserve.

eLearning has a blog for Clark College Blackboard Users; Smart Penguin – http://www.smartpenguin.org/smartpenguin/

The Information Commons at CTC launched their own blog, the East Side Story: http://www.clark.edu/Library/ctcblog/

The Library’s laptop loan program is becoming an increasingly popular service for Clark students. During fall quarter the loan period was increased from 2 hours to 3 hours. Total check-outs for fall 2008 were 144 and as of week 3 of fall 2009 the seven laptops in the Cannell Library circulated 265 times (an increase of 45.67%).

CTC students, faculty, and staff are now able to access the Clark College library catalog and Summit catalog to request books and other research materials. Library materials are delivered approximately twice a week via Clark courier or Orbis Cascade Alliance courier.
