Case buildings use automated card-swipe door access during evening hours. Our Intercom provides Visitor access with ID during Regular Business hours:

Case Faculty, Students, Staff—use your Case ID in the main door card reader.
Visitors—press the intercom at the Main Door & staff will release the door for you. Present a photo ID to staff upon entering the building. 

Note: Affiliate libraries are autonomous institutions whose ID cards are not magnetized for our card readers unless there is dual student/employee status at Case—simply press the intercom for entrance, showing your ID to staff as you enter.
