Starting Tuesday, May 31, facial coverings will no longer be required in the Library/Learning Resource Center or any Palomar College Library locations. All students, employees and visitors must continue using the Cleared4 daily health screening and be cleared to be onsite before coming to the campus or education centers. Community members can download the Cleared4 Health Survey to obtain a Cleared4 pass.
Chat With a Librarian is a live, online reference assistance chat service. Questions are answered by staff at the Palomar College Library or by other reference librarians participating in our worldwide network. This free service is easy to use and available 24 hours/day, 7 days/week! A microphone is not mandatory to use the chat service; as it is text-based. The service does allow for screensharing if a student prefers that type of assistance and has a microphone.
