At the Library

What can your card do at the library? 

It allows you:

  • Anytime access! A valid Owl Card is required to gain physical entrance to the Libraries' Main Boca Campus building during non-public hours from 10pm- 7am, Sunday through Friday.  
  • Easy Access! The library has gates that are active during all business hours. While the library is open to the public, anybody without an Owl Card is required to sign-in at the service desk as a visitor. Visitors also are required to alert the front desk on departure so as to have the gate opened for them.  With your Card in hand, you can swipe in & out and keep on going. 
  • Material Access! With the power of your Owl Card, you can check out print material to take with you. Need to access one of the reserve items located at the front desk? Now you can do that, too. 
  • ILL Requests! Material not in FAU's collection can be requested through our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) department. Users must create an account and an OwlCard is required. ILL provide access to both electronic and print resources.
