If you are a currently enrolled student your NOVACard works as your library card. You will need your NOVACard to borrow materials from the library and to print or copy on campus. Students may borrow up to ten circulating items at a time with their NOVACards. You can use your NOVACard to pay for late or replacement fees at all campus libraries.

Public patrons at NOVA libraries are issued orange community cards as their library identification. To qualify for the card public patrons must prove that they reside in the Northern Virginia area. Community cardholders may borrow three items at a time.
