About Us

The Circulation Department provides library services to Broward College and Florida Atlantic University students. We strive to offer quality services that are student centered and value your feedback. Please contact us and share your suggestions.

Your Library Card

Broward College Studen ID

Broward College students can obtain an ID card at the Student Activities Office on your campus (Central--Bldg. 19). The library’s patron database is updated weekly during the three academic terms. Your card is valid as long as you are enrolled at BC. Patrons who receive their ID card and need to use the library or Academic Success Center resources immediately will have to go to the Circulation Desk at the U/C Library to have their card activated manually. Otherwise, your card can be used at the library or online within a week. BC patrons from any campus, center, or online may use the U/C Library. If you are attending BC and FAU simultaneously, you will need to use your BC student ID to check out materials. All students must present their ID cards in order to check out materials. 

Lost or Stolen ID Cards

Lost or stolen ID cards should be reported to the Student Life Office and to the U/C Library Circulation staff. Once the loss or theft of the ID card is reported to us, the library account will be blocked against further use. If the ID card is recovered, you must present a picture ID in order to have the block removed.

[FAU Owl Card]

Florida Atlantic University students, faculty, and staff can obtain an Owl Card in Room 201 in the FAU Student Union (SD) building on the Davie Campus. The Owl Card is also your library card and must be activated in person at the U/C Library at the Circulation Desk in order to borrow materials or to access the U/C Library online resources. The first time visiting the U/C Library, please bring your Owl Card and another photo ID.  Afterwards, your card can be updated in person or by calling the U/C Library Circulation Desk at 954-201-6649. Current account information will be verified before an account will be updated. Changes to current account information can be done by FAU personnel only at any of the campuses.  All FAU card holders must present their ID cards in order to check out materials. 
  • Full time and part time faculty, and staff in good library standing can renew their card every semester based on employment confirmation
  • Students in good library standing can renew their card every semester based on current course enrollment 

Lost or Stolen ID Cards

Lost or stolen ID cards should be reported to the FAU Student Union and to the U/C Library Circulation staff. Once the loss or theft of the ID card is reported to us, the library account will be blocked against further use. If the ID card is recovered, you must present a picture ID in order to have the block removed.
