MyLibraryNYC is a partnership between the NYC Department of Education and New York City’s public library systems: Brooklyn Public Library, New York Public Library, and Queens Library. The program provides participating schools with:

1. enhanced library privileges including fine-free student and educator library cards*;
2. school delivery and the exclusive use of 6,000+ Teacher Sets designed for educator use in the classroom; and
3. student and educator access to the unparalleled digital resources of New York City’s public library systems as well as instructional support and professional development opportunities.

*No overdue charges on books, audiobooks, or teacher sets; standard overdue charges apply on all other materials (e.g. DVDs, CDs, magazines); Queens has Read Down Your Fines for Student Cards; any excessively delinquent or negligent educator and student accounts will be blocked.

Students at participating schools need only one card to use both their school library and public library. That provides bigger borrowing access to books, ebooks, DVDs, databases, and more. From research projects to recreational reading, MyLibraryNYC expands students' options. With enhanced public library privileges such as extended loan periods and increased item borrowing limits, MyLibraryNYC helps facilitate a love of libraries and learning.

The next time you visit your local library, tell them your school is a part of MyLibraryNYC to get all of the benefits.
