Resource Guides
These are lists of books and other resources in KCC Library Collections that have been picked by Reference Librarians for special topics. The lists do not include all of the resources you can find, but they are a good place to start. Clicking on "Check availability in Hawaii Voyager" will take you to the KCC Library Catalog where you can see if the book is available or checked out, and which Collection it is located in.
