PASCAL Delivers

The Partnership Among South Carolina Academic Libraries (PASCAL) Delivers program allows CCU faculty, staff and students to borrow books that Kimbel Library does not own from other colleges and universities across the state.

• How can I request an item from PASCAL Delivers?: Only books can be requested through PASCAL Delivers.
