The Library, located just off the Atrium, is an information center that provides resources from books, magazines and newspapers, videocassettes and CD-ROM information sources using the latest information technology. Library users have access to a catalog of materials that covers not only the South Suburban College Library, but 72 other Suburban Library System libraries. Students and faculty can obtain resource materials including books and magazine articles from these libraries. The Academic Computer Information Local Area Network (ACILAN) provides access to 130 magazines, the Chicago Tribune and 15 other reference sources. Workstations are located in the Library and the Academic Assistance Center. In addition, the Library provides access to the Internet and American Online.

The Library provides comprehensive services including: information skills instruction so that students can find, use and analyze information; reference services and help using the Library; a collection of textbooks for classes that are being offered by the College; copy machines; and an enlarger for the visually impaired.

In order to take advantages of these services, students and faculty must have a Library card. This card can be obtained at the Circulation Desk in the Library. The Library card is to be used as long as the student is enrolled at South Suburban College.

Because of the spiraling costs of materials and large number of students using the materials, fines will be imposed for late and lost materials. Grades may be withheld if a student does not return materials and/or pay fines by end of the semester.
