Books
The book collection is developed to support
curriculum that is specific to Yakima Valley Community
College. If you're looking for a book, you can access
the
online Catalog.
Search options include subject, title, author, and
keyword. Students enrolled in a distance learning course
or courses on the Grandview campus may request books
online.
INTERNET RESOURCES
The library maintains a list of
INTERNET RESOURCES
arranged by subject. Websites are
selected using the same selection guidelines as those
used for all other items in the Library/Media Services
collections.
Multimedia
material and Equipment
The Media Services collection includes a variety of
media and equipment acquired for use in the classroom to
supplement instruction. All resources of Media Services
are in the
online Catalog.
These resources may be borrowed only by YVCC employees,
however, students may view and/or listen to resources in
the Library. Ask in Media Services, located on the
second floor of Raymond Hall, for additional information.
Periodicals
The Library subscribes to approximately 80 journals,
magazines, and newspapers and several thousand
periodicals and newspapers through our subscriptions to
various databases. You can search for specific titles,
using the
online Catalog,
the alphabetical periodical list (SEE the "Periodical
List" link on the
Library Homepage
or one of the subscription
DATABASES.)
Reference
The Reference Collection consists of dictionaries,
encyclopedias, thesauri, directories, almanacs, and
other, similar one-stop resources. Reference books are
typically used to locate a fact, gain a general overview
of a complex subject, or identify an external
information source and are listed in the
online Catalog.
ReserveS
Items placed on "reserve" are normally high-demand
items by individual faculty members and may be borrowed
for only a short period of time. The Reserve Collection
changes from quarter-to-quarter, reflecting the changes
in course offerings and assignments from
quarter-to-quarter. The current list of reserves
is in the
online Catalog.
student
laptops
Laptops are available to be
borrowed by currently enrolled YVCC students in the
Media Center.
Student laptop borrowing
procedures
Additional information about
Library and Media Center acquisitions and collections is
available in the
Collection Development Guidelines,
approved by Administrative Council on July 28, 2009.
