The Northeast Iowa Community College campus libraries will mail books to students who live 50 miles from a campus or NICC center and are currently enrolled in a NICC distance education program. A maximum of five books, per mailing, will be delivered to the student's home address. Books will circulate for two months and cannot be renewed. Books must be returned by mail directly to the lending library and postmarked on or before the due date.
Please also keep in mind that a local public library may be the fastest way to receive your books. Many libraries participate in consortia and have access to the collections of other public and college libraries in your state.
Items not available for loan by mail include:
Reserve and Reference items
Any item deemed too fragile by the library staff
Any book items not currently in the library’s collection (interlibrary loans for books cannot be obtained at a distance and must be placed through the student’s local public library, if available).
