| Abstract | In 1972, when the third campus of Montgomery College was being planned, a commitment was made to community use of the campus facilities. From the day the Germanstown Campus library opened, its services have been available to the college's students and to the community at large. The library has a bookstack capacity of 65,000 books, 100 study carrels in the Media Center, a children's room, an administrative office, and a small study/conference room. Its resources include 50,000 books, records, audio-visual materials, films, video cassettes, and slides recorded in a central college library data system; and the children's room includes a collection of 3,000 books that are made available to the campus day care operation and to the children of the community. Since 1980, there have been over 600 new community requests for library cards each year and the non-campus user groups break down as follows: employed adults (25%), alumni (15%), high school students (15%), homemakers and unemployed (10%), students from other colleges and academic institutions (10%), senior citizens (10%), children (5%), and miscellaneous visitors (5%). Although there were some initial concerns about community use of the libraries at the college, community users have conformed to the guidelines and regulations regarding the use of materials and competition between students and community users for access to books and materials is no longer an issue.
