Find Yourself at Mt. SAC Library this Fall Semester!

The library is open 7 days a week and 24/7 online! We have spaces, resources, people, and technology for the entire campus community.

October and Ongoing Events

Banned Books and Censorship Awareness

With posters around campus, the Library is partnering with the Equity Center to bring awareness to the problem of book banning and censorship. We support access to information and resources and are against the practice of censorship. The posters will highlight books which have been banned in other places (e.g. removed from other libraries and classrooms). Come by the Library to check-out books which have been banned elsewhere, learn more about censorship, and take action to stand up against book bans! Around campus and in the Library. Beginning Monday, 10/6 and continuing in October.

Battle of the Banned Trivia Event

Join us for an afternoon of trivia game fun that will expand your knowledge on the danger of banned books and censorship while learning about the power of library resources! No trivia experience necessary. Form a team (4 max) or join a team at the event! In Building 410 - Multicultural Center. Tuesday, 10/21, 3:30-5pm.
