Course Reserves & Textbooks

Course reserves are housed at the circulation/check out desks at both of the MCC Libraries. This collection includes a variety of items placed on reserve by your instructor which may include supplemental reading, media, anatomical models, and textbooks. The MCC Libraries do not have every course textbook available in our collections, but we do have many of the textbooks used in core courses including math, biology, chemistry, psychology, and more.

Please ask at one of the library service desks and we can check if your textbook is on reserve in the library. Most course reserves are only available for in library use for 2-3 hours.
