Library Hours
Our Address:
We are open Monday – Friday year-round, except for college-recognized holidays (Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving & the day after, Dec.24th-Jan 1st) and select Fridays in Summer. We're closed on weekends. Check the Library homepage for our current hours, as they change in between semesters.
Yes, we welcome community members to our library. To use the computers and/or print, community members may stop by the circulation desk to get login information. Cost for printing is 5 cents per black and white page or 50 cents per color page.
Study rooms are available first-come, first-serve and are checked out to students by Library staff in 2-hour increments. Users can renew the room as long as no one is waiting for one. Students are given priority.
You need your Lakeshore Student ID card. If you don't have a card, you may bring an official photo ID and we can create a student card for you at the Library.
Most books are able to be checked out for one month. Course textbooks and reserved materials have varied checkout lengths.
Most library materials may be renewed in person; by email (library@gotoltc.edu); over the phone (920) 693-1130; or log into "My Account." If you sign up for text notifications (in My Account > Edit account > enter mobile phone no. and check "Opt In"), you can reply to a recieved text notification with RENEW.
You can! Search for the item you want in the library catalog. Click "Request it". Log in with your first or last name and Student ID number. Click Submit. You will get an email in your Lakeshore email when the item is ready to be picked up at the Library Desk.
All library materials are free to borrow! But if items are not returned by their due date, they are considered overdue. Once an item is overdue, the library sends you three overdue notices (one each week) and a final bill (on the fourth week) stating item replacement costs via mail, email, or both. If we don’t hear from you within that month, we turn your library balance over to Lakeshore Student Billing. They then issue a pre-collection notice asking you to contact them within 30 days to make payment or return the item(s). After two months of contacting you with no response, your account balance is sent to the Wisconsin State Debt Collection (SDC). Once your debt is given to WI SDC, you now own the item. You can call 1.608.266.7879 to work with Wisconsin State Debt Collection (SDC) to pay off the replacement cost of the items.
