HELM and FLO
Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é College Library has several cooperative arrangements with other
libraries:
- HELM () is a network with other academic libraries that share a catalog, common needs, and
collaboration aspirations.
- FLO () is a consortium of academic and special libraries in Massachusetts. Membership allows
all members of the Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é community free access and borrowing rights at all of these
academic institutions.
- MCCLPHEI () provides deep reductions in the purchase of databases using the leverage of the
member institutions, which include community colleges, four-year colleges and the
several University of Massachusetts campuses.
Other Library Catalogs
- If you cannot find the book you need in the Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é Library, try the BPL () or another community college or state college library. All state residents may borrow from the BPL. You can use your Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é ID to borrow from
any state run college library.
- ComCat () is the state run catalog that lets you log in and place holds on books from libraries
all across the state. From the website: "With access to millions of titles, the Commonwealth
Catalog extends your library’s reach to all participating libraries throughout Massachusetts,
with convenient pick-up at your local library." You should use ComCat after you have
checked the Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é library.
