Library Link listed at the Bottom of the main website page!
On the right side of the screen are the links to all our Online Library Resources . These links are listed across the top of this page. Each tab will walk you through these resources: What they offer and how to use them effectively.
This is the main hub for currently enrolled FHTC students. Here you will find links to Moodle, Student E-mail, Library resources, course schedules, grades, important student documents, and when the time comes... the graduation application.
