Attention new students!

Have you got your TAFEcard yet? What about your TAFE username and password? You need these to borrow items from the library, to log into computers and to access our library eResources.

TAFEcard example

 

 

 

 

 

  • Your TAFEcard is your library card and having it enables you to borrow items from any TAFE NSW library.
  • You also need your TAFEcard to print, photocopy and scan in the library.
  • Your TAFEcard is available from campus student services or from some libraries.
  • Keep your TAFEcard. If you have a TAFEcard from previous studies at TAFE NSW it will be automatically reactivated with your current enrolment.
  • Students are provided with a unique username for student login e.g. firstname.lastname1
  • Your username and password is used to log on to library and classroom computers at TAFE, to access Library eResources, the Student Portal and free WiFi.
  • Library staff can help you get your username and reset your password.

Library Locations

Please call into your local TAFE NSW library for more information or assistance.

Our libraries are here to help you! Here are a few ways we can save you time and make your coursework easier this semester …

Library Orientation Sessions for new students are now running at all campus libraries. These sessions are usually booked by your class teacher, and you can also book an individual session. Ask staff at your TAFE NSW library

Sessions on how to use our many databases, catalogue and other online resources are also available. Remember when you get your assignments, that we can help you with referencing and bibliographies too. All of these sessions are useful for both new and continuing students.

You will need a username and password to access computers and online resources at TAFE. Library staff can help you with this.

Some campus libraries can also provide your TAFEcard for printing and borrowing. If you can’t get a TAFEcard or username and password yet, library staff can provide you with a temporary library card or username and password for access to library resources and computers.

Need to print, scan or photocopy? You can do this in the library. Ask library staff to show you how.

All of our libraries have free wi-fi, and we can help you get connected.

How Do I ... ?

We hope that you enjoy your course! To find out more about how our Library Service can help you on campus and online, explore the Library Portal Homepage  and the How Do I … ? pages.
