All Columbia College Library policies and procedures exist within campus- and district-wide policies and procedures, along with applicable federal, state and local laws.
The Columbia College Library's Oral History Series is a collection of interviews about the rich history of the Mother Lode. The interviews in the collection were originally recorded between 1949 and 1992, primarily through the Introduction to Oral History course taught at the college by history professor Richard L. Dyer, but new interviews are being added regularly. These interviews provide a vital link to the history of our community.
In 2016 we introduced a new Oral History website that has been viewed by people throughout the state.
