For Faculty & Staff

Faculty & Staff Library Resources

CGCC faculty and staff can make purchase requests for new titles, borrow materials from other libraries, and access additional tools designed to enhance student learning.

Faculty may place library materials or their personal materials on Reserve for student use related to classroom assignments.

Reserve materials are located behind the Circulation Desk, and are for in-house use only. You can search the library catalog to see what has been placed on reserve — look under “Course Reserves.” You must have a CGCC student picture ID to check out these items.

eReserves are available by visiting eReserves website. You must be a CGCC student or faculty to use this collection and will be asked to login with your MEID and MEID password.

Faculty:

  • Please allow 72 hours for materials to be put on Reserve and allow up to one week for eReserves.
  • Note that the library does not purchase college textbooks to be put on Reserve.

Faculty-owned materials will be checked out to the faculty’s class members only. Library-owned materials will be checked out to MCCCD students and MCCCD employees for the Reserve Room check-out time and place.

For additional information on eReserves, call 480.857.5102.

Have a resource in mind for the library? Submit a purchase suggestion for books, materials, or other resources.

The Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service allows you to obtain educational and research materials not available in the Chandler-Gilbert Community College Library collection. This material may include books, articles in periodicals, documents and multimedia. They can be borrowed from libraries all across the country and throughout the world!

Interlibrary loans are processed through the online ILLIAD system. If you need any assistance in setting up your ILLiad account, please contact the Pecos Library, Circulation Services, 480-857-5102 or Williams Library, Circulation Services at 480- 988-8611.

Requests from libraries within the Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) are normally filled in three to seven days, but allow a minimum of two to six weeks for requests outside of the District. This service is free for most requests, however, some libraries may impose a fee.

Explore Open Educational Resources (OER) to find free and affordable teaching and learning materials.
