How do I get a StFX ID card if I'm not at StFX?

I am a distance student and don't have an ID card


Answer

Graduate or undergraduate distance students not able to obtain an ID card in person can e-mail StFX Safety & Security Services at security@stfx.ca. Please include:

  • A high quality picture to be used on your ID card
  • A scan of government issued photo ID
  • Your StFX Student ID number
  • Your current mailing address
  • A request to have them e-mail you your Novanet number (barcode) right away 

Activate Your Library Account

Students are automatically registered for a library account.  Follow the procedure above if you are in a distance program or working remotely.

For faculty and staff, once you have your Novanet number (barcode), we prefer you submit the online registration form to activate your account.  In special circumstances, you can also register your account in-person at the Main Service Desk.

Faculty/Staff

*Members of the general public wishing to register as an Off-Campus Borrower (OCB) must do so online.  Please remember to bring 2 pieces of government issue ID, with at least one that includes a picture when picking up your new card.
