International Baccalaureate Cards
You can use Dalhousie Libraries with an I.B. card
Register at Dalhousie
Your IB High School Student I.D. is your library card. Once the Killam Memorial Library has received the list of registered IB students from your high school, you can use it to borrow books and other materials, in person, from any Dalhousie Library. Bring your High School IB I.D. card to the Killam Circulation Desk and fill out a registration form. That’s it. After that, you are ready to go.
Your ID card is used for all loans. You must present it each time you wish to borrow materials. Without it, you cannot sign out anything from the library.
- Lost cards and changes of home or email address must be reported to the Circulation Desk.
- Tell the library of any address and phone number changes.
Cards are not transferable.
- Library correspondence will be sent to your school email address so please check it regularly when you have materials signed out.
Borrow from the library
There is no limit to the number of items you can borrow, but because of the high demand on our library resources by Dalhousie students, we ask all IB students to exhaust their own school library resources before they use Dalhousie.
Otherwise, Dalhousie Library borrowing policies apply to you just as they apply to Dalhousie Students. Read more about our borrowing policies:
Accessing electronic resources
All IB participants will have access to any Dalhousie electronic resource (ejournals, databases etc.) while they are in the Dalhousie Libraries. However as we have a limited number of PCs which are in high demand, we would ask that participants use the electronic resources made available to them by and at their schools first.
- Our research tools section is a good place to start.
- So are our subject guides.
We do not offer off-campus access from home or school to Dalhousie’s electronic journals and databases to IB students. You can use the Novanet catalogue that lists all books and journals held by most Nova Scotia university libraries.
