The Sandra C. Goldsby Library is located in the Donald W. Reynolds Center on the Southcampus. The Library functions as a study and research center for the College. Currently, the Library houses a collection of nearly 18,000 books and over 1,900 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 75 print periodicals, 5 daily newspapers, and 5 Internet-based online databases.  The EBSCOhost, SIRS Knowledge Source, Gale’s Discovering Collection, Grolier Online, and Britannica Online databases enable our students to search more than 15,000 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 Xeroxing class notes, making copies of presentation handouts, etc.
