Greenville Technical College Libraries are active partners in supporting student success and teaching excellence. They accomplish this by delivering access to resources, teaching information literacy skills, supporting instructional technology, and providing services and programs. As a part of the college and larger community, the libraries host programs that support local services and agencies. These special events enlighten Greenville Technical College students, faculty, and staff as well as members of the community about opportunities and resources in the Greater Greenville area.
