Your award will be based on this EFC number.

Your award letter will outline your award amount for the year.
You may also receive a verification letter that requests documents that your Financial Aid Advisor needs to finish processing your award.
You must be enrolled in at least three (3) hours.
If you are eligible for a Pell Grant at another institution, chances are that you will be eligible for a Pell Grant at Angelina College.

There are 60 patron computers and 2 catalog computers in the library. The patron computers provide access to the Internet and have Microsoft Office installed. Check with a library staff member for more information. The library computers are primarily provided for course-related work. Academic use is always given priority over usage for personal entertainment.
If you wish to save documents, you should bring your own USB drive or other recordable media with you. Insert these before starting on your project and remember to save regularly. Please ask for assistance if you are not sure how to save a file. The library Computer Use Process is listed below.
The patron computers provide access to the Internet, office productivity software, library printers, and a variety of other resource software, which support the curriculum of the college. The computers are primarily provided to support class-related assignments and priority will be given to that purpose.
The patron computers may be used by currently enrolled Angelina College students, faculty, and staff, as well as to those that live within the College’s service area. AC students, faculty and staff are given priority.
Computer equipment is provided for the use of the college community. Patrons are responsible for all charges accrued using any computer resource. Time limits on patron computers will be determined as needed.
The library reserves the right to impose time and other usage limits in order to provide priority access for students on class-related assignments.
Computers may only be reserved by AC faculty or staff, on an occasional basis, for class-related work. Patrons will be held accountable for damage to any equipment.
Patrons are prohibited from altering any program, setting, or data. Never use any college-provided computing resource to view or transmit obscene or pornographic material or anything illegal, threatening or deliberately destructive— even a joke. A patron is personally responsible for his/her actions in accessing and utilizing the library’s computer resources. Usage is a privilege, not a right, and may be revoked if abused. Repeated misuse of the workstations may result in usage being denied.

There is a document scanner available on the first floor, as well as a mobile device charging station, and there are three group study rooms available on the second floor. The library Study Room Process is listed below. Other services for AC students and employees include spiral binding with plastic rings, and lamination of items up to 25” wide, and one Student Access Services computer on the first floor.
The study rooms of the AC Library are provided to give Angelina College students, faculty and staff a site for collaborative study and research. The study rooms are primarily provided for groups of three or more AC students.
One or two people may use a room, but may be asked to vacate if all rooms are full and a group requests the room. Community patrons that live within the College’s service area are allowed to use the study rooms, but must vacate immediately if an AC patron group needs the room and no other rooms are available.
Use of the rooms is limited to two-hour periods and users must check in at the service desk. Angelina College students and employees can reserve a study room one week in advance. Reservations will only be held for 15 minutes past the scheduled reservation time. After the initial two hours of usage, all library patrons may return to the service desk and request an extension for an additional two hours. This request must be made immediately at the end of the first two hours. If no other library patron needs to use the room, the prior room occupant may stay, but may be asked to vacate if another library patron requests the room and no other rooms are available.
Excessive noise by a group may result in the group being asked to leave. Repeated misuse of the study rooms may result in usage being denied or disciplinary action taken.
Reserve material takes many forms (books, articles, notes, videos, models) and is kept at the library service desk. Instructors place items on reserve to ensure that all students have access to the material.
If you are an Angelina College student or employee, bring your AC I.D. and the items you wish to check-out to the library service desk. If you are not an Angelina College student or employee, bring your State-issued photo I.D. and the items you wish to check-out to the library service desk. If your fine record is clear and you have no overdue items, the materials will be checked-out to you. A date due slip attached to the item will indicate when to return the material. The library Circulation Process is listed below.
Borrowing privileges are extended to Angelina College students, faculty, and staff as well as to Community patrons that live within the College’s service area. However, fees are levied for late, lost, and damaged materials. Proper identification must be presented to the library staff at the time of check out.
Loan limits and loan periods may be overridden as determined by the librarians. Fines accrue from the date due, including weekends and holidays. A book drop is available at the front of the library for after-hours returns. If an item is not found, the item is considered lost and the patron will be billed accordingly.
Books should be returned to the first floor circulation desk or the outside library book drop. The book drop is located on the outer wall of the library to the left of the main entrance. To prevent possible damage, please return non-print materials inside.
Yes, it is possible to borrow the materials from another library by utilizing TexShare card services. Refer to the TexShare Card Process listed below.
Angelina College Library participates in resource sharing with many other Texas libraries through membership in TexShare. TexShare is a consortium of Texas libraries joining together to share print and electronic materials, purchase online resources, and combine staff expertise. TexShare cards are available to Angelina College faculty, staff, currently enrolled students, and Community patrons that live within the College’s service area.
