Reference librarians at CBC are happy to help you with everything
from finding a book and/or peer-reviewed journal articles to how to do
an extensive research project. We offer reference service in person in both our libraries, or you can contact us by phone or online.
Phone 509-542-4890 (Pasco) | 509-544-8336 (Richland)
If no one answers the phone during regular reference hours,
we are probably busy helping other patrons. Please leave us a voicemail
and we'll call you right back!
Summer (June 26 - Aug 17) Reference Hours: Monday - Thursday 9 AM - 1 PM (Pasco)
