Good news for students! There is now a networked Pharos color printer in the E-Buidling Lab. (Jag Spot)
It costs 50 cents a page and must be paid for with a JCard or VCard.. If students inquire about it, remind them to check the balance on their cards before they leave the library, because we are the only place on campus with a machine to add value.

Our Mission
Sometimes, especially in times of intense activity and stress, it's good to remember the basics of why we are here. Earlier this year the directors approved this mission statement:
GPC
Libraries are partners in the learning, teaching, and research activities of a
diverse multi-campus community. GPC Libraries support the mission of the
college by providing information resources and services to support academic
achievement and foster intellectual curiosity.
To
accomplish our mission, GPC Libraries:
- Provide relevant and stimulating resources that support the college’s academic programs
- Teach skills to effectively locate, critically evaluate, and ethically use information
- Use technology and electronic resources to provide services and information on-campus and online
- Engage the GPC community through outreach programs promoting literacy, research skills, and library services
- Maintain pleasant learning environments with excellent staff dedicated to patron service and teamwork
You've no doubt noticed the new GPC webpage and slogan: A Better Way Forward. Be sure to also read the vision, mission, and goals of the college found at http://www.gpc.edu/News_and_Information/mission.php3 All of your efforts with and for our students is a life-changer. Remember that!

Charging tables for students
Students can
now charge electronic devices using the library study tables located on the
main floor. The dual charging hub can be used to plug up laptops, tablets,
smartphones, and other charging devices. This will eliminate that dreadful low
battery. While charging your devices please do not leave them unattended.
Voter Registration and New Technology
Great news for Georgia voters, Georgia Secretary of State-
