Your ID card combines three functions:
o It proves you are a registered student of the University of Worcester. You may be asked to produce it as proof of identify in certain situations. You must have your card with you when you are going to sit an examination
o It is a Library card and must be used when you want to borrow books from the Library.
o It can be used to pay for printing at photocopiers/printers located around the campus.
The ID card remains the property of the University and must be returned upon request.
In order to use your ID card with network printers or photocopiers you need to transfer money onto the ID card. There are two machines where you can do this - opposite the reception in the main building or opposite the issue desk in the Peirson building.
If
you lose your card, or if you suspect it has been stolen, you should
immediately report the loss by e-mailing firstpoint: firstpoint@worc.ac.uk
Firstpoint
will be able to inform you of how to purchase a replacement card.
If
your card has been stolen and you can provide a Crime Reference number from the
police in support of this, you will not be charged for a new card.
The new
card will have a new ‘issue number’. Once you have been given a new card, you
should notify the library of the card issue number. This will prevent your old
card being used by anyone else, however you are responsible for any borrowings
undertaken up to the time when the card is reported lost.
Please hand it in to the Firstpoint Enquiry Desk located in the Peirson Study & Guidance Centre.
