Mission of Seed Library

  • The purpose of the Maricopa Native Seed library is to provide free, native seed to the community, as well as education and information to make it easy to incorporate these plants into your yards, patios and balconies. Anyone can include some native plants into their residences, whether you have a lot of space or a small apartment.
  • How it works:
    • Anyone can visit the library and obtain seeds, no library card needed.
    • We kindly ask that each customer takes no more than 3 packets per month.

Mission

The mCLCTL Mission: 

myCareer: myCareer seeks to prepare students for degrees, certificates and occupations in the fields of accounting,  entrepreneurship, small business, information technology (computer science, networking/cybersecurity, office applications, programming/mobile apps, web design & development, administration of justice, health, wellness and exercise science, and construction trades (carpentry, electrical, plumbing). The preparation is in alignment with the expected knowledge, skills and abilities of those industries in consultation with industry advisors. The Division seeks to not only impart the necessary “technical” achievements, but also requisite employability (soft) skills. 

Library: The library  serves the needs of students, faculty, staff along with  the greater Phoenix community by providing an accessible resource to support the cultural, educational and informational needs. The library  promotes information literacy, global citizenship, civic engagement  and lifelong learning. It provides these services to support individual and group improvement, enrichment, increased opportunity, knowledge and recreation. 

CTL (The Center for Teaching and Learning): To establish a culture where faculty and staff come together to inquire, explore, learn, innovate, and reflect upon teaching and learning as an ongoing and collaborative process for student success.
