NOVACard
Your NOVACard is your official college ID and library card.
Print, Copy, Scan
Printing and photocopying is available at all NOVA Libraries. Students need to have a NOVACard with money loaded on it.
Reserve a Group Study Room
To work with a group of two or more, reserve a study room in the library by choosing your campus and following the directions.
Borrow, Renew, Request
Your NOVACard is also your library card and is required to check out or borrow materials. Most materials can be checked out for 3 weeks.

Off-Campus Access
Off-campus access to most of our databases is available to current NOVA students, faculty and staff by signing into your My NOVA account.
