The Cuesta library has textbooks and other required print materials for many of our courses. These textbooks can be checked out and used within the library for two-hour periods (loan periods may vary by item). The Cuesta library is also expanding its selection of textbooks available as digital scans for viewing from any device on campus or off campus, in compliance with publisher guidelines.
