Announcements & Information

Spring 2022 Semester Reopening Updates

Dear San Diego Miramar College Students,

Welcome back! We are glad to announce that the Miramar College library is now open. To maintain the safety of staff and students, face coverings are required when on campus. Students must agree to follow COVID-19 safety precautions and guidelines shared on our Miramar College website.

Virtual services are available through the Miramar College Library website. You can connect with librarians for research assistance or get help with general questions from library staff. Physical books are available for checkout and in-library use. Group study rooms are once again open to students (albeit with limitations on seating). Interlibrary loan service between the SDCCD campuses has resumed as a regular service.
