Do you need a BCCLS Library Card?
Public libraries are dedicated to meeting our patrons where they are - especially during difficult times. Anyone who is a resident of one of the 77 towns of the BCCLS consortium who does not already have a library card can apply for an eCard.

-
Fill out the online registration
-
Receive your library card number via email or text.

How Do I Get Access to eBooks, eAudiobooks, and eMagazines? Use your library card number to log in to OverDrive (eBooks and eAudiobooks) and RBdigital (eMagazines).
