GOLDSBY LIBRARY
The Sandra C. Goldsby Library, located in the Donald W. Reynolds Center
on the South Campus, functions as a study and research center for the
College. Currently, the Library houses a collection of nearly 20,700
books and more than 2,000 videos & DVDs to support the curriculum,
including a core collection of contemporary and classic novels for
recreational reading, as well as picture books and juvenile novels used
by the education courses.The Goldsby Library subscribes to numerous
print periodicals, daily newspapers, and Internet-based online
databases. The EBSCOhost, SIRS Knowledge Source, Gale’s Discovering
Collection, and Britannica Online databases enable our students to
search more than 31,630 indexed periodicals, newspapers, and government
documents electronically, most of which provide full-text access. These
databases also provide access via the Internet to multiple sets of
reference materials and links to more than 40,000 quality web sites
considered to be academically appropriate to support students’ research
needs.In addition to print and web-based resources, currently enrolled
MSCC students have access to needed materials not currently owned by our
library by placing a request through our Interlibrary Loan services.
Internet and CD-ROM computer workstations are available, as well as a
viewing room and private study carrels for viewing video tapes,
listening to cassettes and CDs, or studying independently or with a
small group of classmates. The Library has a coin-operated, self-serve
copy machine for reproducing class notes, making copies of presentation
handouts, etc.
