Your student UMF ID + a library barcode = your library card.  Bring your student ID to the main desk (on the right as you enter the library) and ask for a barcode.  It just takes a few seconds!

You will need a barcode to:

• borrow books,
• access e-books available to UMF students,
• request books from other libraries,
• check out materials on reserve for a course (even if reserve items do not leave the library, they still have to be checked out to the person using them), and
• use the library databases from off-campus.
