Campus Library FAQ: How do I get a library card?

Your UW ID card (Husky Card) serves as your library card. Use it when checking out books and materials from UW Libraries.

New UW Bothell students will receive an email with instructions on how to obtain their Husky Card. ID cards for new students, faculty, and staff will be obtained at the Enrollment Services desk on the lower level of Summit Hall during office hours. You will need to have your UW student/employee ID number and U.S. state- or federally-issued photo identification with you (such as a driver’s license or passport). Thy do not accept high school IDs.

To get a replacement card, email uwbreg@uw.edu. Include your name, Student ID number, mailing address, and reason for replacement. The non-refundable replacement card fee is $25 and the charge will be added to your student account. All replacement Husky Cards are mailed, and cannot be picked up at Summit Hall.
