Students currently enrolled in courses with OTEN are entitled
to consult and borrow resources from their nearest TAFE NSW
library. A TAFEcard (photographic ID card) is required
first, and this can be obtained from the administration office
of any TAFE campus, upon presentation of enrolment details.
