The primary borrowers are credit and noncredit students, faculty, administrative personnel and nonacademic staff. Borrowers are classified as:

(1) Credit students;

(2) Employees of the district;

(3) Continuing education, noncredit students.

The library may extend services on proper identification to persons not affiliated with the college. Borrowing privileges may be extended to such persons if they reside within Seattle College District VI, or if they are a duly enrolled student or faculty member of one of the other state community colleges. The library extends services to other libraries through the "interlibrary loan" process.
