  • Once graduation information is verified, we will create your library account and issue you a library card. 
• UM-Dearborn Alumni who wish to borrow materials from one of the UM-Ann Arbor libraries may purchase a guest card at the Hatcher Grad Library.
• UM-Ann Arbor or UM-Flint alumni are not eligible for a free alumni library card at the Mardigian Library. They may purchase a guest card for use at the Mardigian Library.
