We have seen a couple of Victoria University students recently who have presented barcodeless student cards for ULANZ registration. Our programme requires a barcode to be scanned in, so this is a practical problem. The response from VUW is:

“Victoria University ID cards should all have a pre-printed Library barcode. It appears that this year a number of ID cards were produced without pre-printed barcodes. VUW does not issue student ID cards for the equivalent of “culturally enrolled” students so you can safely assume that if a VUW student has a current ID card (or current expiration sticker) they are officially enrolled at VUW.”

Lending and Reader Services advise they are able to assist any VUW students by ‘sending a barcode via mail’. I am hoping this barcode can be stuck on their card. Please ask any other VUW students in this situation to contact VUW Lending and Reader Services if they wish to register as reciprocal borrowers.
