D. LEONARD CORGAN LIBRARY
Jackson Street
Telephone: (570) 208-5840

The primary purpose of the D. Leonard Corgan Library is to provide information for students and faculty in an environment, which encourages learning. Because education, as a process, involves more than the acquisition of specific knowledge, the library staff strives to provide the best possible collection of resources and the services to support the curriculum and independent study. The library provides students and faculty an online catalog and electronic information services. Access is available through any computer connected to the campus network and the web.

During the academic year the library is open:
Monday through Thursday 8:00 a.m. - midnight
Friday 8:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.

Part-time students who are not enrolled in a degree-granting program may obtain a temporary library card at the Circulation Desk by presenting an ID card issued by the Center for Lifelong Learning.
All library fines and charges must be paid before students receive their grades or transcripts.

King's College faculty and students may borrow directly from September through early April from the Osterhout Free Library and Veterans Administration Hospital Library.

Interlibrary Loan
Books and periodical articles not available in the library are usually obtainable from other libraries through interlibrary loan. If you wish to initiate an interlibrary loan request, please consult a librarian at the King's Reference Desk or the Circulation Supervisor. Electronic forms are available on the Library's web site.
Initiate interlibrary loan requests well in advance of the time the materials are needed.
