Each PolyCard is tied to a [Campus Express](https://dineoncampus.com/calpoly/campus--express) account, which can be used like a debit card to purchase food, printing, and other supplies on campus. **Resources on Campus** - If a student has a dining plan, they can use their PolyCard to purchase meals at campus dining locations. - A PolyCard also allows students to access resources at the Library and the Health Center. **Additional Benefits** - Students, faculty, and staff can ride bus transit for free by showing their PolyCard. - Your PolyCard is tied to your library account, giving you access to online resources like [OneSearch](https://cpslo-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore/search?vid=01CALS_PSU&sortby=rank&lang=en_US), which becomes available the morning after your card is printed. **Costs and Replacement** Your first PolyCard is printed for free. The cost of a replacement PolyCard is $5 and payment must be made via [Campus Express](https://calpoly.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPKB/pages/2424927).  ## Quickstart 1.
