Book Services

You have several options if we do not own a book you need.

Fill out an InterLibrary Loan (ILL) Form here . A librarian will attempt to get a book for you from another library. It may take from two (2) to four (4) weeks for it to arrive, assuming the librarian is successful in obtaining the book. You will be contacted either way.
Fill out the Purchase Request Form . We will try to buy your request. It may take a month or more for your book to be available. We give priority to academic titles.
Check out the Sandhills Regional Public Library System. The RichmondCC Library's priority is titles supporting our curriculum. We provide some popular fiction and non-fiction titles. Your public library will have more.

Not sure which option you should choose? Call us at (910) 410-1749 and ask for a librarian. Email us anytime at libref@richmondcc.edu.
