Getting/Replacing ID Cards

Getting a Card

Dowling College ID Cards can be made:

  • at the Periodicals Window in Oakdale and
  • at the Circulation Desk in Brookhaven (A208).

Students registering at Dowling for the first time can get their ID cards one week prior to the start of their first semester. For current students, ID cards can be obtained at any time and are available immediately.

To get an ID Card you will need:

  • Administration/Staff
    Please present a photo ID and recent Dowling paycheck stub or letter of acceptance from Human Resources when you first come in for your ID.
  • Alumni
    Alumni may check out up to three books from the circulating collection
  • Dowling Institute
  • Faculty/Adjuncts
    Please present a photo ID and recent Dowling paycheck stub or letter of acceptance from Human Resources when you first come in for your ID.
  • Good Neighbors
    Members of the Idle Hour Community can obtain a Good Neighbor card that can be used for general borrowing privileges, access to the College's tennis courts, and admission to on-campus events. Applicants must be at least 18 years of age. Please present proof of address and a photo ID.
  • Students
    Currently enrolled students should bring a copy of their official course schedule and a photo ID when they come in for an ID

Administration, staff, faculty, and students (including those of the Dowling Institute) have full access to Library resources.

Replacing a Card

There is a $5.00 fee to replace an ID Card.  This fee increases incrementally by $5.00 for each additional replacement card.  (Second replacement is $10.00, etc.)
