Hours
Mondays through Friday's 7:45am to 4:00pm
Access
No passes are needed before school, lunch or after school.
During extended periods, only two students per class should be issued a library pass in order to preserve the academic nature of the period.
Policies
Baltimore City College Library strives to emulate a college library environment while recognizing the paradox of access. To cultivate this environment and maximize access, students should:
-
refrain from eating or drinking
-
engage quietly in collaborative work/academic conversation
-
keep music on portable devices at an acceptable minimum
-
respect shared resources, equipment, and furniture
