Getting ready to come to University

Your library card
Your library card is your official proof of ID on campus. You can use it to get into buildings and buy food and drink at the University.
Before you leave home, please register online and upload a photo of yourself for your library card. We will then be able to create your card so it's ready for you to use when you get here.
What to bring, what not to bring
We recommend that you bring a minimal amount of belongings.
