What if the item I want is not available?
A book or DVD at any of the TCC campus libraries may be delivered to any other campus library by simply requesting it through our online catalog. This is called an inter-campus loan request (ICL). Typically books are delivered within 1-2 days, and you will receive an email to your TCC email address when it is available to pick up.
You can also use the ICL request to put a book or movie on hold at your own campus library IF it is already checked out to someone else. When the item is returned, it will be held for you to check it out next. You will receive an email to your TCC email address when it is available to pick up.
NOTE: There is no guarantee that checked-out items will be returned before your paper is due.
This video demonstrates, step-by-step, how to request a book or movie from another campus.
How do I renew items I have checked out?
Materials may be renewed once online before the original due date. If your books and movies are already overdue, or if they have already been renewed once, you should bring them to your campus library to renew in person.
Checkout Policies:
In most cases, books check out for 3 weeks at a time. DVDs are checked out for 1 week. There are certain times in the semester when the checkout period may be less than 3 weeks. Check with the Circulation Desk at your campus library for more information.
