Students

Your NCC student id is your library card. When you enroll in classes, a library account is automatically created for you, at no additional cost. In addition, students can use the library's digital resources and databases from any location or device with their Northampton SSO / Workday login. 

Faculty and Staff

Your NCC staff id is your library card. When you are hired at the college, a library account is automatically created for you, at no additional cost. Faculty and staff can also use the library's digital resources and databases from any location or device with their Northampton SSO / Workday login. 

Alumni

If you are an alumnus who has completed 30-course credits or you have graduated from NCC, you are eligible to obtain a library card.
