CapCard Centre (Student Photo ID)
SPRING 2012 CAPCARD
The CapCard is your official student photo identification as well as your Library card. All new students need to obtain the CapCard after completing the registration process. As soon as you are registered in a term, visit the CapCard Centre for your card and avoid the line-ups at the start of each term!
As your Library card, you will be able to borrow material and access online databases. Once you have obtained your card, please go in person to the Library to activate your barcode.
The CapCard is required to be presented at the Registrar's Office when requesting any services (i.e. transcripts, changes, etc.) and also when attending the Cashiers' Offices.
FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW!
How to Obtain Your CapCard
Attend the CapCard/U-Pass Centre to get your card. You must come in person to have your photo taken. The card will be issued immediately and all cards must be signed upon receipt.
You are required to present your student number and one piece of government issued photo ID (Driver's License, Passport, BCID, or Canadian Citizenship) to obtain your card.
There is no cost associated with this card.
Please note that sunglasses and/or hats (baseball caps, toques, etc.) are NOT permitted in photos.
Sunshine Coast and Squamish Campuses
If you are taking courses at either of these campuses, please attend the appropriate campus for details and to obtain your photo id. You may also attend the North Vancouver campus to acquire your card.
Photocopying
Your CapCard cannot be used for photocopying, instead, you can:
- add money to your online PaperCut account to make photocopies at the LB 128 MFD copier in the Library, or
- purchase a Services Card for $1.00 from one of two machines (Cash Card Managers) located inside and outside the Library. Once you have purchased the card, put it back in the machine to add copy value.
The machines accept loonies, toonies and $5, $10 and $20 bills. They do not accept Mastercard, VISA, or any other credit cards. They do not give change - use exact change only. For your convenience, there is also a money change machine just outside the Library's main doors.

Report lost or stolen cards to the Library and check to see if your card has been turned in. Also check with the CapCard Centre for lost cards. If you do need to replace your card, follow the process outlined above in "How to Obtain a CapCard"..
