CCSF Book Loan
Program
The Bookloan Program, an Associated Students
Activity, is a one of a kind program dedicated to
alleviating students from the burden of ever rising
textbook costs by providing FREE textbook borrowing.
As a student initiated, student run program, we have
been serving City College since the 1980s. Bookloan
has been able to provide affordable textbook solutions
to many CCSF students a semester. Every student
enrolled in classes at City College, regardless of campus,
is eligible to borrow from the Bookloan Program.
Students are allowed to have two textbooks out at
a time and may trade for other titles throughout the
semester. Books carried are for many of the general
education courses required in transferring to a four
year university, have a lending period of one semester
and are due back by the last day of finals. Bookloan
office is open year round and is located in the Student
Union Building, Room 104B on the Ocean Campus.
!!Important Message for AS
Book Loan Users!!
Dear AS Bookloan user,
Thank you for using the AS Bookloan Program.
Hopefully you have been successful in your classes so
far. I'm wishing you good luck with your last few weeks
of school and on your finals. Please remember the
LAST DAY to turn in Bookloan textbooks is Thursday,
Dec 18th, books must be returned to our office 104B
in the Student. WARNING: If you do not return your
books by 12/18, you will have a hold placed on your academic. Most importantly, we hope you will remember
to turn in your books because other students need to
use them next semester. You wouldn't have gotten your
book if the previous user did not return it, so please
consider this and make sure to turn them in on time.
If you had to buy some of your books this semester, it would be immensely appreciated if you would
consider donating them to the AS Bookloan Program
for students to have access to more books. We know
times are tough and I thank you for your consideration.
Thank you for being part of our program, and I hope
you've had a wonderful semester and have an even better Christmas break.

MOVIE SCREENING BY
THE HISTORIA CLUB
From acclaimed Israeli director Amos Gitaï,
One Day You’ll Understand (2008) is a meditation on
memory, identity, and the reconciliation that follows
a French businessman’s growing obsession with the
secrets of his family’s past. “Suffused with a quiet glow of
sympathy and enlightenment” (The New York Times),
the film is an understated exploration of the legacy of the
Holocaust. Come and see this film by documentarian
Amos Gitaï (from the book by Jérôme Clément), with
Hippolyte Girardot, Emmanuelle Devos et Dominique
Blanc. The film (in French, with English subtitles, 1h30)
will be presented en français by CCSF instructor Renée
Morel and followed by a Q&A session.
After watching this amazing film there will be a
presentation in French! Come, enjoy and learn about
French.
