Library Cards
UCLA BruinCard
The BruinCard is the official identification and service card for UCLA students, staff, and faculty. Be sure to use the full ten digit number (the tenth digit is usually on the back of your card).
Library Associates
With an annual gift of $80, users can join the UCLA Library Associates and obtain a complimentary library card. Present your confirmation email to the Biomedical or Young Research Library circulation desk to obtain your library card.
UC, CSU, and Community College Students
Students, faculty, and staff from other UC campuses are eligible for free UCLA library cards. Library cards for students at California Community Colleges and California State Universities are $25 for a six-month period and $50 for one year. Transfer Alliance Program participants are eligible for a free library card.
Library Cards and Access to Online Materials
