Tools to Plan your Visit

Library cards

If you are planning to have each student borrow items from the library, please make sure that everyone in your group has a library card. If not, please take a moment to read through the Library's Membership Guide for information on eligibility and requirements. You can also download a membership application form (English/French ).

When you are booking a class visit, please notify staff if you will be applying in advance for library cards. It is important that the completed forms are delivered to the hosting branch one week before your visit, so that each applicant's form can be processed in time. We cannot process forms on the day of your visit.

Corporate cards

Submit a signed letter from the director of your organization on official letterhead requesting a corporate membership in the name of the organization, and naming a contact person who will be responsible for the card. Mail, email or drop off the letter to any branch.
