OneCard

The Emily Carr OneCard is your University ID card that provides access to library resources, A/V equipment checkout, and campus facilities, including classrooms, shops, studios, and any other areas and resources that are assigned for your specific requirements.

Students

  • You must be enrolled in a class to receive access to an area.
  • Waitlisted students must wait until they are enrolled in a class to gain OneCard access to an area.
  • If you lose your OneCard, please notify Student Commons to get a replacement OneCard.

Faculty

  • Your OneCard will provide you general access around campus and into areas you are specifically teaching in.
  • Sessional Faculty: access is provided two weeks prior to the start of a semester to allow for prep work, photocopying etc., and a week after the semester ends.

Staff

  • Your OneCard will provide you with general access around campus and into areas you are specifically working in.

Do not lend your OneCard to anyone or provide access to a restricted area to someone without an access card.
