UCLA and UC Alumni

Members of the UCLA Alumni Association or other UC Alumni Associations are eligible for a free library card. To obtain a library card, present proof of your current membership status to any UCLA Library circulation desk.

All Alumni library cardholders, regardless of Alumni Association membership status, are given a yearly expiration date for their library accounts. If your UCLA Alumni library account has expired, please contact us at yrl-circ@library.ucla.edu to request a renewal. Our staff will confirm your contact information, and renew the account. 

Library Cards and Access to Online Materials

Please note that Library cards are used to access UCLA's print collections. They do not provide access to UCLA's online subscription materials.

Alumni Association Database Access

The UCLA Alumni Association offers some of its members access to a single database, ProQuest Research Library. This is not one of the databases available to current UCLA students, faculty, and staff. Access and support for this service are provided by the Alumni Association.

Home

The UCLA Library creates a vibrant nexus of ideas, collections, expertise, and spaces in which users illuminate solutions for local and global challenges. We constantly evolve to advance UCLA’s research, education, and public service mission by empowering and inspiring communities of scholars and learners to discover, access, create, share, and preserve knowledge.
