Borrower Cards for Visitors and Alumni

Obtaining Borrower Cards

Alumni

Alumni who are active members of the Alumni Association may obtain a free library card that entitles users to check out books and physical materials from Foley Library. Proof of membership is required in order to obtain a free library card.

Guest patrons

Community members not affiliated with the University can purchase a library card at the Circulation Desk for $35. Residents of Washington State or out-of-state residents need a valid state-issued photo I.D., a current address, and a current email address. Community members under 18 years of age must have a parent or guardian establish a parent/child account.

Jesuit Passport

As a member of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU) Foley Library participates in the Jesuit Passport program. Jesuit Library Passport provides on-site borrowing privileges for AJCU faculty at any Jesuit University Library in the United States.  Visiting faculty must present an AJCU Direct Reciprocal Library Borrower Form and ID card from your home school along with picture ID at the Foley Library circulation desk. Form must be signed and approved by your home library.

University of Washington Spokane Medical School

Current University of Washington Medical School students and faculty can use their Gonzaga-issued I.D. card to check out library materials. UW students and faculty receive the same borrowing privileges as Gonzaga graduate students.

Washington Library Association

Current Washington Library Association members may request a free library card. To receive your card please show your WLA membership certificate at the Circulation Desk. WLA members receive the same loan periods as guest patrons.
