We are always on the lookout for materials connected to CCCC to add to our collections!
Any Library staff member can accept items at the Lee Campus Library's Information Desk. Please do not leave items after hours. All items become the sole property of the CCCC Archives & Special Collections.
Please bring us:

- brochures, pamphlets, flyers, programs...
- maps, blueprints, and surveys
- buttons, pins, badges, decals, ribbons, and stickers

- newspapers
- furniture, office décor, appliances, light fixtures
- course materials after 1990
- artwork, including framed art, sculpture, installations, murals
- microfilm and microfiche unrelated to the history of the college
- books, journals, magazines (unless written by a faculty member)
