The circulating collection, located in the tall bookshelves, contains approximately 20,000 volumes. These are cataloged according to the Library of Congress classification scheme. PAC , lists items held in our collection, as well as in the collections at Mesa College and City College. If the SanD PAC indicates that the item you want is held by City or Mesa colleges, you may go to either of these campuses and use your current student ID card there to check out the material. Or you can go to our Reference Desk and request the item be sent as an interlibrary loan through campus mail to Miramar.
Requests can take up to three working days to process, so please plan ahead.
The librarians take great pains in keeping the collection up to date, weeding out older or little-used materials in order to make space for newer items. We welcome suggestions for additions to our collection. The room itself can seat 16 students at four tables. More chairs may be added, if necessary. Back issues are housed in the Technical Services area , and must be requested at the Check-Out Desk .
