View Library Hours:
Blue Ridge Community College curriculum students have a Library account. The Blue Ridge ID card for students and staff serves as your library card. With your library account, you can check out materials and reserve study space. Access to electronic resources will require use of your Blue Ridge credentials (email and password).
Continuing education students, as well as local residents, can also get library cards by filling out an application at the library circulation desk. Library staff will issue a community card to any person who lives, works, or goes to school in the surrounding area. Contact the library at (828) 694-1879 or library@blueridge.edu for more details.
