Dillard Library / Library Resource Center

The Dillard Library was established in 1967.  The library building is the only 2 story building on campus and offers a great view with its oversized windows.  The library itself is a 14,000ft2 facility housed on the 2nd floor of the building.  This facility offers handicap access via elevator on the main floor or ramp access via the back entrance to the library.

The Dillard Library is a member of the Harrington Library Consortium (HLC), which consists of more than 80 libraries located in the Panhandle/North Texas region.  Membership in the HLC allows FPC patrons access to all of the resources at any of the member libraries both directly as well as through Interlibrary Loan Services (ILL).  ILL services are offered as a free benefit for all FPC patrons.

This library collection houses over 30,000 printed volumes of reference, academic and fiction books.  There are also extensive academic and music cd collections and a growing DVD section.  The LRC subscribes to more than 72 monthly, weekly, and daily periodicals.  Newspapers are kept for 1 month and magazines are archived for 1 year. 

Twelve computer workstations are available for patron use during open hours.  These computers have internet access and will support all homework needs.  The FPC Acceptable Use Policy must be followed while using the computers.
