"The CDLC Direct Access Card Program is based on the premise that participating libraries will translate their commitment to cooperation and service into library access for users of other libraries in the region, even though their collections may not otherwise be open to the public. The program is meant to provide serious library users with access to resources not available in the library with which they are primarily affiliated." (From CDLC)
You can sign up for your DAP card at the reference desk! All you have to do is fill out a patron application. Also, it is recommended when you use another institution's library, you have your student ID and your DAP card with you.
