PASCAL requests were closed for the holidays, but you can once again request books through the PASCAL catalog for deliver to Addlestone Library. When your book arrives, you get to keep it for six weeks before returning it – plenty of time for research or a good read!

Wondering where your PASCAL book is?  You should receive an email when your book arrives, but every once in awhile, something happens …

If you feel like your book should have arrived, you can stop by our office, or you can save yourself the footwork and check “My Library Account.”

Once you login to your account, you can see if your PASCAL item has been received.  You can also see when any PASCAL or CofC books are due (and even renew your CofC books).

Just a handy little tool to let you know about your books!

As we start the new semester, don’t forget about PASCAL!

PASCAL (Partnership among South Carolina Academic Libraries) is a consortium of over 50 academic libraries in South Carolina. If the book you need isn’t available at College of Charleston, chances are you can find it in the PASCAL catalog! There is even a link to “PASCAL Delivers” on the right hand side of your College of Charleston catalog searches.

Any book you request via PASCAL should arrive within a week! Log into “My Library Account” to know if it’s been received. Then just come to room 103 of Addlestone Library (or visit the Research and Information Desk).  You get to keep the book for six weeks. Amazing!

If you already know about PASCAL and want to share the love, please consider writing a testimonial and let the powers that be know how awesome it is!
