Allison Greene shares her heartwarming experience at the Berkeley City College (BCC) Library. She emphasizes that students can access a variety of resources beyond books, such as Chromebooks, headphones, calculators, and phone chargers. There is also a stationery area where students can use staplers, pencils, and hole punchers. In addition, free printing is available.
BCC librarians support students as they prepare to write their papers, and the library regularly hosts engaging activities, including ice cream days, arts and crafts. The library also collaborates with the Biology Department to host a Plant Day, and the Berkeley Public Library organizes monthly activities for students. Allison concludes with a heartfelt message to BCC students: "Know that at Berkeley City College, we love you."

"Hello, my name is Allison Greene, and I work in [the] Berkeley City Community College Library. You can find information about us at https://www.berkeleycitycollege.edu/library. In the library, we check out multiple things besides books. We check out Chromebooks. We check out headphones, calculators, and phone chargers. We have a stationary area with staplers, pencils, hole punchers. We also have free printing. We have study rooms that you can reserve. And we have the best librarians when you get ready to write your paper. Also, one of the new things that we started doing is we started having activities at lunchtime, like we do ice cream days, arts and crafts. We also collaborate with the Biology Department to do a Plant Day we've done twice a year. We also collaborate with Berkeley Public Library. They come and do activities like once a month. So, in our library, we try to make you feel comfortable, feel welcome. So, please know when you come in, you're gonna get a hello, and when you leave, you're gonna get a goodbye.
