This is a general reference guide to use of our Physical Facility for patrons, with information on building access, TBL/BACC/Table reservations, facilities issues, and signage requests.

GU Affiliates Access to the Physical Facility

Dahlgren Memorial Library (DML) adheres to the University’s ID badge policy and requires that an ID be visible when you enter the facility. DML staff, including student staff, will ask to see your ID if it is not readily visible. Both GOCard and the MGUH ID are acceptable. If you do not have either of these, you will be asked to present a current picture government ID and the IS Desk staff will verify your status at Georgetown University. If you do not have your GOCard or MGUH ID when the information Services Desk is closed, then you will not be able to enter the library.

The master planning construction webpage provides information on how to access campus locations during the construction projects and updates.
