Information on resources available to CCS alumni

Library Privileges

CCS Alumni retain Library privileges after graduation. For building access, visit the CCS Campus Safety office in the Kresge Ford building to obtain a Library Limited Access badge. A valid ID is required.

Use the Library Catalog to search for books and DVDs. For help finding library materials, see the instructional video on navigating the catalog or ask at our Circulation Desk.

Computer Use

Alumni may log on to the guest wifi from personal devices or use the computers in the Library for a 3-hour period.

To access Library databases, including subscription resources, ask at the Circulation Desk - a librarian will provide access to these resources via a guest login. Note that Adobe Creative Cloud is not available unless you have an existing personal subscription.

Scanners may be used, but printing and copying are not available.
