COM Library

Do you live in the community surrounding College of the Mainland?  If you reside within the taxing district for the college (Texas City, La Marque, Dickinson, San Leon, Bacliff, Hitchcock, Santa Fe, Algoa, Arcadia and Alta Loma), you can purchase a COM library card for $12/year.  Cards are good for one school year (Sept -  Aug) and are pro-rated on a monthly basis.  For staff, students and faculty at COM, your COM ID is your library card. While most library services can be accessed onsite at the library without a card, you will need a COM library card to check-out books and DVD's. Popular online leisure reading options like hoopla and Libby/OverDrive will not be accessible to community members through COM with a library card, but can be accessed at most local public libraries.  If you are interested in those services, visit your local public library to get a card and start reading online today! .
