Library Services During Remote Operations Guide: Library Services

Checking Out Materials

The Library is operating remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the building is closed to the public until further notice. We are still providing library materials and some course reserve materials.  Library staff is available on a limited basis to distribute materials.  Please browse the library website to view materials and place holds, and then schedule a time for pick up using the Online Scheduler or contact the Library Circulation Desk at library.circulation@skagit.edu. For help using the scheduler, watch this fun video!

Return or Renew Materials?

To return library materials, please use the book drop or contact the library staff.

If you want to renew your materials and are registered for classes for the next quarter, contact library.circulation@skagit.edu for more information.  

Mount Vernon Campus Library

You may return books and other small items in the book drop behind the library at any time. (Covid testing has been relocated to the Fairgrounds so the parking lot is now open.)

Students can return library materials to the Whidbey Island Campus Library by using the drop box located in the walkway between Hayes Hall and Oak Hall. The lower level parking lot provides easy access to drop off library material.
