Library Cards

Students registered for the current or upcoming session's classes

- are entitled to obtain a library card (barcode sticker that goes on the back of the student's ID). The student must have the GCC picture student ID to obtain the barcode. These IDs may be obtained at GCC Administration.

Faculty and Staff

- may fill out an application for a library card at the Circulation Desk.

Alumni and patrons not directly affiliated with GCC

- may purchase a "Friends of the Library" card for $20. This card entitles the holder to check out books and to Interlibrary loan privileges but does not include remote access privileges. The card is good for one year.
