The NCLTCC Library is an online library. From this page, you can access all the resources we have to support you in your studies.
We have tutorials to show you how to access and effectively use the library's resources. We even have program guides to help you find resources specific to your program of study. Because our resources are available online, you can access them 24/7 from any internet connected device. However, if you need to speak to a librarian, contact information along with hours of availability are located at the bottom of the page.
To use this guide, use the navigation tabs at the top of the page.
The library's collection consists of electronic books, journals, images, and maps, as well as newspaper articles. The NLTCC Library is a member of LOUIS. LOUIS is a consortium of private and public academic libraries and is supported by the Louisiana Board of Regents.
