Library Catalog for our book and serial holdings.
The Library Catalog includes information about the books, audiovisual materials, and periodicals that the Paul H. Thompson Library owns, as well as the holdings of 57 other community college libraries in North Carolina. The catalog shows the status of each item and whether it is checked out or on the shelf.

If you have a Paul H. Thompson library barcode on your student id, you may place a hold on an item if it is owned by another NC community college library.  Held material(s) should arrive within one week.  For more information, call the library at (910) 678-8247, or email: library@faytechcc.edu
