BCC Students, we hope you are keeping well, all things considered, in this most atypical of semesters. But we in Southeast North Carolina are used to extended closures for hurricanes and weather – so we are most definitely equipped to handle the stress that COVID-19 is throwing our way right now. Sending strength!
A quick update for you about BCC Library services for April.
Checked-Out Materials
Like campus, we continue to be closed to ensure the safety of our community. If you have any library materials currently checked out, please don’t worry! All checked-out library materials are not accruing fines while BCC campus is closed due to coronavirus; library users will only be responsible for bills resulting from any lost items. Users are encouraged to keep hold of checked-out library materials until BCC campus reopens and materials can be safely returned.
Research Help from Liza
Liza continues to provide on-demand, real-time library assistance via chat. Here is her April schedule (outside of these hours, our excellent Chatstaff Librarians will field our chats, 24/7, as normal):
So please “stop” by if you need help! This screenshot shows you how to locate the Chatstaff button in the Library Portal.
If you would like to request a specific appointment (occurring over phone, Skype, chat, etc.) with Liza, please use this link: http://brunswickcc.libcal.com/appointments/
Liza is also happy to set up times outside of the schedule listed above; please feel free to email her directly at palmerl@brunswickcc.edu.
Off-Campus Access to BCC Library Databases

Finally, Fun Stuff!
And, remember, the library has access to some excellent (and entertaining!) resources, especially if you and your family are in need of diversion. Here are our favorites from our A-Z Database List (http://brunswickcc.libguides.com/az.php):
If you need help getting started with any of these databases, please let Liza know.
Hang in there, BCC! We’re with you every step of the way!
Sincerely,
Carmen, Liza, Delois, & Mary
