NOVACard/Library Card

NOVACard is the official identification card of Northern Virginia Community College. All NOVA students are encouraged to get a free NOVACard in order to access many benefits and services. It is also your library card, which you will use to borrow materials, and the card you will use to pay for printing or photocopying.

You can also add funds to your card's account in order to print/photocopy while on campus.

George Mason University Privileges

George Mason University Libraries are open to the public, and as a NOVA student you have borrowing privileges at GMU's libraries.  To check items out you must have a valid NOVACard and proof of enrollment.

For more information, visit the GMU Circulation webpage and scroll down to the section labeled "VIVA Cooperative Borrowing Program."
