Students - General Information

Current WNC students can borrow materials from either of the WNC libraries as well as the University of Nevada, Reno with their WNC library card. Library cards are NOT needed to access the library's online research databases.

TO OBTAIN YOUR LIBRARY CARD:

All currently enrolled students are in our checkout system. To receive your physical library card, go to the nearest WNC campus library Carson City or Fallon and bring a picture I.D. (your WNC student I.D. is preferred). Library cards are valid for as long as you are enrolled, even if you skip a semester or longer. 

There is a $5.00 replacement fee for lost cards during this period.

Library card benefits include:

• Check out books at any WNC campus library and the University of Nevada, Reno.
• Order materials from all NSHE libraries and other libraries in Nevada (Interlibrary Loan).
• No limit to the number of books that can be checked out.
• Courtesy email reminders for books that have been checked out for over 7 days.   
   

TO CHECK LIBRARY ACCOUNTS ONLINE: 

Access library accounts online using your WNC library card barcode.
