The Libraries of Montgomery County Community College offer a variety of resources for students, faculty, staff, and County residents. The Brendlinger Library and Audiovisual Library (AV) are located at the Central Campus in Blue Bell and the West Campus Library is located in Pottstown. Our online catalog, iLink, contains information on books, government documents, periodical titles, and audiovisual items in the collections of all three libraries.
Any material that may be borrowed is referred to as “circulating” material. If you have a current library card or student ID, you may borrow any item that is part of the circulating collection at any of the Libraries. County residents over the age of 18 may get a Library card by bringing a photo ID to the circulation desk. High school students who are County residents should have a letter from their school librarian requesting use of college material for each assignment.
The majority of our books, government documents, and AV items circulate. Reference material and periodical titles do not circulate and must be used in the Libraries, only.
