Abstract
Abstract Distance learning courses and programs are being offered by increasing numbers of higher education institutions. In the United States, approximately eighty-five percent of community colleges offer some type of distance education. Computer technologies are being employed as teaching tools and distance learning students have developed an expectation of convenience and instant responsiveness. Library services for distance education students should be tailored to their specific needs, utilizing online technologies in combination with traditional services. Statistics show that many community college libraries do not provide special services for their distance learners. Rio Salado College, a non-traditional college in Arizona, is profiled, and the college model for library services is detailed.
