I've just tried and this is what I got (I live in San Jose): "You must be a resident of Los Angeles to register for a library card."
- gordon_freeman 5y agoI have LA library card and I don't live in LA. So here are the details on their page[1]: How do I get a library card? "To receive a library card you can fill out an application in person at any Los Angeles Public Library location, or download the application form , fill it out and bring it in to any location, or pre-register over the Internet by visiting the Library's Web Pre-Registration Page. If you only want access to online resources, and are a resident of the City of Los Angeles, you can get an eCard online. Library cards are free for California residents."

They just don't allow you to get the card online. I got my Card when I visited their main library in LA.
- lostcolony 5y agoYep; this is -most- California library systems. A few are more stringent; Beverly Hills' library, for instance, requires proof of residency within LA County, not just anywhere in the state. But all require an in person visit (I got a San Diego card on a trip there a couple years back; will renew when next in San Diego).
- DrBenCarson 5y agoAny CA resident can apply but you must be in-person to receive a card if it is not your home library.
