Tapping Into SDSU

Grossmont College Library has over 100,000 books – but SDSU has even more! Getting something from SDSU is simple: Check their online catalog here-- San Diego State University Library – for what you want, and then make a request using our Interlibrary Loan service with this Interlibrary Loan Form. Your material should then arrive at Grossmont Library within 1-3 days. That’s it – all without having to enter either library! When we call you that your books have arrived, just stop by the Grossmont Library Circulation Desk to check them out.

What's Your Term Paper's Topic?

Do you have a term paper to write this semester? Students come to the Reference Desk for help with all sorts of topics, from Alternative Energy to Youth Violence. One thing most of them have in common--students can usually find good resources on their topics in these two library databases: CQ Researcher and Opposing Viewpoints. Select them from our list of databases. Give them a try and see if you can find just what you need for your paper.
