Library 411: Home

The Leeward CC Library aims to provide a learning environment that supports the success and well-being of all students. To achieve this, we curate various spaces for diverse learners and their needs.

Tips for an optimal study experience

• Know your study zone. Be mindful of those around you. The library has two study zones: collaborative and silent. 
• Keep it to yourself. Always use headphones and play the volume to a moderate level to limit sound leakage.
• Keep it clean. Deposit your trash in the receptacles in the stairwells. 
• Need power? We have many outlets and charging stations around the Learning Commons.
• Need headphones? Go to the circulation desk on the main floor to borrow a set.
• Need to print? Send your print job to the printer located on the main floor. More info
