Faculty with active UBC appointments are eligible for the UBCcard. This card functions as your library card and as your institutional identification. You will need to obtain your UBCcard in order to borrow library materials and use online library services.

Faculty can apply for the UBCcard at the UBC Carding Office located within the UBC Bookstore. Please bring with you your 7-digit UBC employee number and one piece of government-issued identification document (passport, driver's licence, or BC Identification Card). Faculty can also apply for the UBCcard online through the UBCcard website. Please visit the UBCcard website for more information.

Once you have your UBCcard and a Campus Wide Login (CWL), you will be able to access the Library's licensed databases, indexes, and e-journals from home using the EZproxy login service. For more information about EZproxy and connecting to library resources from home, visit the UBC Library website.
