Hunt Library

James B. Hunt Jr. Library, our leading-edge facility on Centennial Campus, captures the innovative and forward-looking spirit of NC State University.

The library of the future

Your Key to Campus

As affiliates of the university, our Centennial Campus partners can access various amenities, benefits and resources with the help of a Wolfpack One Card. To obtain your Wolfpack One Card, you must:

• Ask your company’s designated representative to submit a request. Your designated representative will email the authorized request to Marie Bauschka at mabausch@ncsu.edu.
• Marie will process the request and provide confirmation when your Wolfpack One Card is ready to pick up.
• You will pick up your ID from the Wolfpack One Card office on the main level of Talley Student Union at 2610 Cates Avenue, Raleigh, N.C. They are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m.

To access Hunt Library with your new ID, call 919-515-7110 or visit the Ask Us desk on the library’s second floor. They will need to add you into their system using the ID number from your Wolfpack One Card. Once that is complete, you will be able to check out books, access online resources and more.
