Students, Faculty, and Staff

Evergreen automatically creates a library user/borrower account for all students, faculty, and staff who join the college. A current Evergreen ID serves as your library card. Greeners may borrow books, maps, cds, dvds, and other stuff from the library's physical collections. There is no limit on the number or type of items. The first time you use your library card, folks at the Circulation desk will request that you show an ID and confirm your contact information. The library is a friendly place where serious work and serious fun both happen - a lot!


Greeners may also access online library services. These include searching the catalog, requesting materials, and conducting research in subscription databases of academic literature. Some online services are password protected, including subscription databases when used off campus. Your full name and registration number, exactly as they appear on your ID card, count as your username and password in all library account matters.


Community Borrowers

Those without an official affiliation with Evergreen may establish a community borrower's account. Necessary identification includes a photo ID and a document that shows a current address - a personal check, phone bill, etc. Community borrowers may borrow books but not tapes, cds, or dvds.

Community users may temporarily access subscription databases from computers within the library.


Extended Education Students

EE does not involve admission to the college. EE students may use the library as community borrowers.
