Library

The college library is located near the center of the Rutherford Campus overlooking the lake. It provides many materials and services you may need in support of your coursework or personal interests as well as a quiet place to study or relax. Public computers in the lobby provide access to Microsoft Office and the internet. Printing and copying services are available for a nominal fee.

The library staff is dedicated to offering assistance to students, employees, and the general public with informational needs, including resources, directional questions, and detailed research guidance. The librarians are available to visit college classrooms for group instruction at any Isothermal classroom instruction location.

The library website provides guidance for research, writing papers, using documentation styles, and access to the library catalog, research databases, and other electronic resources, including 24/7 Library Chat.

The Isothermal Community College Library is also a member of North Carolina Community College Evergreen (NCCCE), with a shared catalog. A library card from any one of the member libraries allows the bearer to borrow materials from any NCCCE library.
