Need a Laptop to Complete Coursework?

Success in a college program requires using a laptop or desktop! A smartphone, tablet, or Chromebook is not enough.

If you cannot complete your coursework because you have no laptop or because your laptop is too old to handle the necessary software, the QVCC Library has a FREE  laptop lending program, while supplies last. 

Once you are registered for class(es), complete the online QVCC Technology Request Form to get your name on the waiting list.  Completing the form takes just 3-5 minutes.
