Welcome (Back)!
Whether you’re new to Clark, new to being on campus, or a familiar face, we’re excited to see you this year in the library (in person or virtually)!
The first floor of Cannell Library is open from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Monday-Thursday. Walk-ins and appointments are also available from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. Monday-Thursday. Fridays are by appointment only from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. We’re looking forward to increasing our hours and available spaces as more staff are hired.
Here are some of the services and resources available to you:
- Ask a Librarian: in person, 24/7 chat, email, phone
- Laptop checkout and computers
- Course reserves (textbooks for your classes)
- Calculator and phone charger checkouts
- Over 50,000 physical books, 300,000 ebooks, DVDs, CDs, and streaming videos at Clark College, with millions more available to request through Summit
- 140 online databases available from home with scholarly/peer-reviewed journal articles, newspapers, and magazines
- Popular Reading and Renaissance Kids Collections
Overall, the library strives to be a welcoming place that you can study, relax, work by yourself or in groups, and ask any questions you have, whether they’re for college or not. If we’re not the right people to help you, we can guide you to who can.
With that in mind, library staff and faculty worked to create an Equity-Focused Strategic Plan last year that we’re excited to share with you soon. Stay tuned for another blog post!
