A CAAL card grants you in-person borrowing privileges at most universities in Canada, outside of Nova Scotia and must be requested from your home library.  If you did not sign up for a CAAL card when you registered or updated your library account online, please contact us at library@stfx.ca to obtain one as quickly as possible.  A CAAL card will only be granted to patrons with accounts in good standing.

To borrow material in-person from any academic library in Nova Scotia or at Mount Alison University, you may present your StFX ID card (CAAL card not required) at their Access Services desk.
