Did you know...

...that the BSC community can borrow equipment from the library? We've got all kinds of different things! Netbooks & iPads for keeping up with your school work (very popular with those traveling for athletic events), HD video cameras & SD cards, media projectors & screens for dorm events or presentations, we even have a few external DVD drives!

All our equipment is available for students to check out for 3 days at a time (faculty & staff get 7 days). A full list of everything available can be found on the library's website. Our library staff is always happy to answer any questions you may have, so feel free to call (205-226-4740) or email us (libcirc@bsc.edu)!
