You will need STUDENT IDENTIFICATION
IVCC Student Photo ID photos are taken in the main lobby of IVCC. A schedule is posted in the lobby.
Note: An IVCC Student Photo ID can be made without a photo upon request by calling 224-0558 but will
necessitate another picture ID to confirm identity.
Students will be required to show an IVCC Student Photo ID when using the IVCC Library and
Assessment Center services (i.e. taking exams, and/or checking out books).
Students utilizing library services (for taking exams) at the Reddick Library in Ottawa, Matson Library
in Princeton, Streator Library, and Graves Library in Mendota will require: An IVCC Student Photo
ID OR A State of Illinois drivers license/identification card and a student schedule.

Center can make an appointment for you at the IVCC Jacobs Library during the library’s operating
hours. The phone number for the IVCC Assessment Center is 224-0542.
