You also have library borrowing privileges at Briar Cliff College, Heelan High School, Sioux City Public Library, WITCC, Sioux City School System, Marian Health, and St. Luke's Regional Medical Center. Your Morningside ID will be your library card. Contact Karen Johnson, Circulation Manager (x5245) for more information.

Database Access

Users must be a Morningside College student to access our online databases. To get access to our online databases from off campus, go to our home page, and log-in using your Morningside College assigned email account information. If a user is not a full-time student, they'll need to contact their course instructor to get the current semesters user name and password. Each semester the password will expire. Contact Adam Fullerton, Digital Services Librarian (x5247) if you have any problems.

Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is the borrowing of books or periodical articles from other libraries. This service is provided free of charge to all students, faculty and staff of Morningside College.

Borrowers can expect to receive items in 7 to 14 days, although some requests take considerably longer. You will not be guaranteed an arrival date. You will be notified by email or phone when your items are available for pickup. The circulation desk (located on the first floor of the Learning Center) is where you can pickup and return borrowed items. Contact Susan Trisler, ILL/Technical Services (x5102) for more information.
