How do I get a Student ID card?

Your Student ID Card is your library card and available from the K Block - Atrium.
In order to have a card made you will need to present one of the following:

• Last year’s EIT student ID Card
• EIT Login form
• Fees invoice
• EIT course Acceptance letter

You will not be issued with any library items unless you have your card with you.
If you lose your card, replacement ID cards cost $5.00.

 

Can you get items from other libraries for me?

Yes. Interloan forms are available at the Desk or you can complete an Interloan Online Form. Interloans take a few days to arrive, so please plan ahead when requesting.

 

What can I borrow and for how long?
