Residents of Orange County can get an eCard by registering online.

An eCard provides access to online databases and downloadable eMedia.

It may not be used to borrow, place holds on material from the library, nor is it valid for use of the public Internet computers at the libraries or access Discover & Go.

Patrons who already have an OC Public Libraries card already have this access and do not need an eCard.

You may upgrade your eCard for full privileges by calling one of our libraries. Click here for requirements.
