LEARNING RESOURCE CENTER (LRC)
Trinity Valley Community College has a Learning Resource Center (LRC) on each of
the campuses to provide academic support systems for all students. These centers
are located on the first floor of the Ginger Murchison Learning Resource Center
building on the Athens campus, in the Anderson Building on the Palestine campus,
in the M. L. Risinger Learning Resource Center building on the Terrell campus, and
in the Administration Building on the Health Science campus.
In addition to the four campus LRCs, remote access to the library catalog and online
databases is available for all students, including those enrolled in distance education
and off-campus instructional sites, support is available (either in person or
virtually) to any group or individual student who seeks assistance with any of the
services provided by the LRC.
Generally, all campuses have study areas, circulating books, reference books, digital
books, reserve materials, coin-operated copy machines, newspapers, computers,
periodicals, print and electronic journals and access to online databases. Books are
classified by the Library of Congress Classification system and housed in open
stacks. Online public access catalogs are available in each Learning Resource Center
for searching the collection. For orientation, training and information about online
services, see the library staff.
The hours of operation are posted both on the LRC’s webpage and at each campus
location and a current identification card is required for transactions. Books,
computers and other materials are available for academic research and class
assignments. All provided resources are designed for use by the college student for
academic use and personal enrichment.
PARKING, TRAFFIC, AND STUDENT ID CARDS
All vehicles regularly driven on campus by students, staff, faculty and administration
must have a current parking permit and must be parked in authorized areas. It is the
responsibility of anyone registering a vehicle for campus use to become familiar
with the traffic rules and regulations. A copy of these may be obtained from the
Campus Police Department.
TVCC student photo-identification cards are issued to all students through the
campus police department on the Athens campus and libraries on the satellite
campuses. This card entitles students to use the library, the Cardinal Success Center,
Cain Center (located in Athens) and free admission to athletic contests. The student
is liable for the proper use of the activity card until such time as it is reported lost or
stolen to the Campus Police Department. A $20 fee will be charged for replacing a
card.
