How do I check out books?
The Learning Commons collection of books can be freely browsed during open hours. If you would like to check out a book, all you need is your Parkland ID-- your ID is your library card.
Alternatively, books can be requested and placed on hold for later pickup.
Here is the procedure to request a book:
- Search the library online catalog for titles
- Sign in to check availability using your Parkland credentials
- Click request and follow the steps
- Wait for email confirmation that your books are available for collection
- Collect your books from the Main Desk in the library during opening hours
You can also email a list of titles to library@parkland.edu and a staff member will assist you further.
When your books are ready to be collected, you will receive an email notification to your Parkland email. Please allow at least 24 hours for your requests to be fulfilled.
Items not held in Parkland Library may be available from another institution using an Interlibrary Loan Request.
