Uconn ID with Jonathan Husky

Your Husky One Card is your UConn student ID. In the Library, use it for:
♦ checking out library materials
♦ checking out technology and equipment (like laptops and headphones)
♦ picking up interlibrary loan materials and course reserves
♦ printing
♦ accessing the Babbidge Library (Storrs) after 8pm

Add money to your One Card in person or online.

Your NetID identifies you as a UConn student and authorizes you to access university restricted resources, including your library account, Interlibrary Services, and HuskyCT.
Your NetID also provides access to our restricted resources (article databases, eBooks, eJournals) when you are off campus. To find your NetID, reset, or change your password, go to: netid.uconn.edu. If your encounter problems, please contact the UConn Technology Support Center.
