LRC Mission Statement

The Coastal Bend College Library Services mission is to support the college curriculum by providing educational resources in all formats. Librarians select resources to help our students successfully complete their assignments, teach individuals and scheduled classes how to effectively conduct research, and guide patrons in the development of critical thinking skills to ensure their success in the global marketplace. In addition, the Library provides general materials to stimulate the interests of a dynamic student and public population to promote life-long learning.
