More information on the student ID policy: Students may sign in at Main Campus library one time per semester with an alternate form of photo identification and proof of their current enrollment (syllabus, textbook, etc.).  Current students may not sign in as guests-- their names will be checked with the one-time pass list, and they will be denied entry if they have already used their pass this semester. Please note that Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ students taking classes on other campuses must still have a current student ID in order to enter the Main Campus library.
