How to get a library card

The process for signing up online depends on your local library.

  • Go to your local library’s website to find instructions for applying for a library card. Some states, like California, allow you to get a library card in cities where you do not live. Look for non-resident borrowing privileges.

  • Look for an “Apply Online” button, email address, or  instructions. Due to the pandemic, most libraries are offering online library card applications.

  • Some libraries allow you to sign up through the Libby app.
