Northwest Vista College Library
Northwest Vista College Library is an academic library that is part of the Alamo Colleges District.
Join us for Tea Time Tuesdays at the library! Every Tuesday we offer free tea at 2pm. Get yourself a cup and study!
Did you know?: "Drinking tea is less likely to produce a ‘caffeine crash’ than drinking coffee. This is because the high levels of antioxidants in tea slow the absorption of caffeine, which results in a gentler increase of caffeine in your system and a longer period of alertness with no crash at the end" (Cite: Royal Museums Greenwich).

Beware the ducks (Egyptian geese) on NVC campus! They're hungry for knowledge, not bread!
Did you know, Egyptian geese are not native to North America? These beautiful birds were imported from their native home in Africa, but happened to escape private ponds and aviaries.
Their appearance can confuse you since they closely resemble a duck. However, the best way to identify them as Egyptian geese is by their chestnut-colored patches around their eyes.
