Borrow

Borrowing is easy and convenient! We offer a variety of items for checkout, from books and study materials to tools and equipment.

Library Card

To check out physical items, you’ll need a JC library card. If you’re a Jackson County resident with a Jackson District Library card, you can use that here as well.

Don’t have a card? Fill out the form below, and you can pick up your physical card at the library or have it mailed to you.

Books

Our library offers a wide selection of books for academic purposes, leisure reading, and research. You can check out books for the semester, and we also have a variety of genres and topics available for borrowing. Visit our catalog to see what’s available, and learn about borrowing limits and policies.

We also offer reserve books, which are available for short-term borrowing. These are often high-demand books for specific courses, ensuring all students have access when needed.

Library of Things

In addition to books, the library provides access to a range of tools and equipment through our Library of Things. Explore the full list of available items and learn how to borrow them.

Items from Other Libraries

If we don’t have the book or resource you need, you can request it through interlibrary loans. This service allows you to borrow materials from other libraries within our network, ensuring that you have access to the resources required for your academic and personal needs.
