IDNYC — as a membership

Every way in

Ordered by how much work it takes.

  1. IDNYC — as a membership

    Set up first

    Needs: IDNYC

    Use your IDNYC card as a library card at ALL three NYC public library systems: New York Public Library (Manhattan/Bronx/Staten Island), Brooklyn Public Library, and Queens Public Library. It's the only card accepted across all three.

    Worth: Free; library cards normally free anyway but this unifies them

    1. Visit any branch of NYPL, BPL, or Queens Public Library
    2. Ask a librarian to link your IDNYC card to your existing library account
    3. Or if new, sign up using IDNYC as your library card
    Watch out: No restrictions.
