Get a library card

 

Welcome! Let's set up your account.

Complete the form below or stop by the library to register for a card. When you submit the form, you'll receive a six-digit library account number. You can use this online to borrow materials, or visit the library to get a physical library card if you'd prefer. Questions? Get in touch.

Library cards are available at no cost to the following: 

  • People who live in Orange County
  • People who pay property taxes to Chapel Hill or Orange County
  • Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools students and employees, regardless of where they live
  • Town of Chapel Hill employees and those who retired from the Town with 5 years of service, regardless of where they live 

Don't meet any of these criteria?  

You can get a card for $65 per year. Register now for immediate access and we will be in touch for payment processing.
