UNAM LIBRARY Membership

Visitors to the University Libraries may make use of our collections, technology and services as well as free guest WI-Fi. Current identification is required to enter the library.

Library registration and renewal of membership is done on an annual basis for both old and new members. Renewal of UNAM staff library membership could be done over the phone by Circulation Desk or Reference Desk staff OR by email (library@unam.na) directed to staff at the above service points at the beginning of each academic year. Due to lack of a guarantee whether students will successfully complete 1st , 2nd or 3rd year programmes, etc., all students are required to produce a valid and current academic year student card or proof of registration in order to have their library membership renewed. External individuals and institutions will only be registered upon full completion of an application form and presentation of the required documentation as indicated below.
