Purchase RequestsFull-time faculty may directly recommend book purchases to library staff.
Part-time faculty should place book requests through their Division Chairs.
To request a book for the Library's shelves, you may:
- Email bibliographic information to the library, or
- Submit a Purchase Request form. - you'll need your library card barcode number in order to submit the form. Please visit the Library's Check Out Desk first if you do not yet have a library card.
Audio-Visual materials (i.e. videos, slides, CD products, etc.) must be previewed and evaluated prior to recommendation for purchase. Preview requests should be submitted to Marie Kottis at x4635 or mkottis@howardcc.edu.
The Library staff follow a formal Acquisitions Policy in selecting and purchasing materials for the Library. Our Acquisitions Policy may answer many of your questions regarding library purchases.
