If you are a short-term resident staying in Massachusetts you are not eligible for an eCard. However, you can visit any of our locations and apply for a research card in-person at the Central Library in Copley Square.
If you have any other card with the BPL, you are not eligible for an eCard (and don’t need one!). You cannot renew a physical library card using this form. If your library card number starts with 29999, you have a physical library card. You can only renew physical cards at one of our locations.
If you have any questions about eligibility, please email websupport@bpl.org.
