WILLIAM HESSEL LIBRARY - COMMUNITY USER GUIDELINES


Those who are not current students or employees of Lake Michigan College, including alumni and retirees, can obtain a community user card to use the library's resources and services. Community users must be residents of the Lake Michigan College Service Area and be over the age of eighteen (18) years old. 

To get a community user card, please visit the circulation desk.  You will need to provide an active email address and a photo ID with your current address listed, such as a driver's license. Public library cards or IDs issued by other colleges or universities are not accepted.

Community user cards are valid for one year. You can renew your card by bringing your current photo ID to the library circulation desk.

See Circulation Guidelines for more information on borrowing items.
