Reach Out
If you attend one of Kirkwood’s regional centers and don’t have what you need, don’t worry! You can request library materials be delivered to your center. Contact your regional center for delivery dates and times. If you request an article via Kirkwood’s Library Search, we will send it to your faculty/student email.
“Even though I live at home, I still feel like I have lots of opportunities at Kirkwood. I’m involved in Student Ambassadors, Student Leadership Council, and Dance Marathon — these activities have opened lots of doors for me.”
