How to get your StFX ID (also your library card)

Your StFX ID is your Library Card. All students, staff and faculty must have the barcode number (21993...) from their ID card, also referred to as your Novanet number, before using our services. Library accounts for students expire every September 30th and will be automatically renewed at the start of each academic year they are enrolled to ensure continued access to all library services.

Get a StFX ID Card 

In-Person:

Visit the StFX Safety & Security Services office. 

From a Distance:

Graduate or undergraduate distance students not able to obtain an ID card in person can e-mail StFX Safety & Security Services at security@stfx.ca. Please include:

  • A high-quality picture to be used on your ID card
  • A scan of government-issued photo ID
  • Your StFX Student ID number
  • Your current mailing address
  • A request to have them e-mail you your Novanet number (barcode) right away 

The Library provides assistance in locating and accessing research resources for students at a distance such as allowing you to order print materials to be mailed to your home.  Please visit this link below if you require such assistance.
