Community

Most library resources may be used on site without a library card, but if you'd like to check out print books or DVDs to take home you'll need to get a COM Library community card. 

Good to Know

• Due to licensing restrictions, access to any online resources will not change with the purchase of a community card. They can still only be accessed on campus. 
• Exceptions to on campus access are Libby and Hoopla which do not allow for community accounts from the COM Library.  See 
• This card is available to residents of Texas City, La Marque, Dickinson, San Leon, Bacliff, Hitchcock, Santa Fe, Algoa, Arcadia and Alta Loma (these cities comprise COM's tax base)

Purchase your COM Library card at the Cashier's Window on the ground floor of the Administration building  (building #2). Once purchased, bring your receipt to the Library Circulation Desk to get your library card.

Cards are $12/year but all expire on August 31^st of each year, so are prorated on a monthly basis.
