Check out The Mass Effect Trilogy at the library

To check out The Mass Effect Trilogy, visit the library’s Circulation Desk with your SRSU ID card and ask for the item number VG 56. Circulation staff will retrieve the game and check it out to you for one week.

You can also browse the “Video Game” binder at the Circulation Desk to see what we have, or you can search our holdings with WebCat, which is our online library catalog. If you want to limit searches in WebCat to video games only, chose “Video Games” in the “type” drop-down menu. If you see a game you want to check out, be sure to write down the location number (for instance “VG 47”). If you need help finding a video game or have questions, ask someone at the Circulation Desk or talk to a librarian.
