LIBRARY I.D. CARDS
The SCC Library card is also an ID card. Students and faculty should bring their photo ID card to the Library to register their unique barcode number and create a library user account. Library staff need to scan the barcode on the card to access the user account at each checkout, so it is necessary to carry the card for library transactions.

FINDING BOOKS & ARTICLES
Search the CCLINC Library Catalog online at: www.southwesterncc.edu/library The catalog indexes all of the Library’s books and audiovisuals. Indexing for journal articles and other research sources are available through the NCLIVE link on the library website. Please feel free to ask, call, or e-mail library staff for help.

CHECKOUTS
Books check out for 2 weeks and can be renewed for another 2 weeks. Magazines check out for 7 days. SCC students are allowed to check out 8 books or magazines at a time. Residents of the SCC service area - Jackson, Macon and Swain Counties - may use the Library, apply for a borrower’s card and check out 4 items at a time.

RENEWALS
Users can login to their account in CCLINC to renew materials online, in order to avoid overdue fines.

OVERDUE FINES
The Library charges ten cents per overdue item, per day, except days when the library is closed. Written notices are mailed to remind users of overdue item status. Students are blocked from graduating, receiving grades or transcripts until library materials are returned and fines are paid.

PHOTOCOPIES
A self-service copy machine with a coin/bill changer is located along the back wall of the Library. Copies cost 10 cents per page. The changer will accept small bills, quarters, dimes, and nickels. Users are responsible for bringing correct change.
