Distance Learning

• Lake City Community College distance learning students can choose to access reliable resources to assist them in their college course work.  Although you may be at a distance, you can still e-mail and call our Reference Librarian for assistance, have books delivered to a library near you, and also have access to full-text articles and electronic full-text books through the Library's databases.
  
  We have designed an online orientation that will help you become familiar with these resources.  Please take advantage of this orientation so that your assignments will reflect that you know how to access "peer-reviewed" journals and information not found on the internet.  Not only will you find these databases reliable (unlike many resources you may find through search engines on the Interent!), but you will find that you can access your information more quickly!  Library Orientation.
