The Library extends borrowing privileges to residents of the Pasadena Area Community College District and to individuals whose primary place of employment is within the District at no cost. If you do not live or work in one of the District's cities, a library card will cost $25.00 annually.

To obtain a card, please bring a drivers license plus one additional item showing proof of residence (a utility bill, check book, or bank statement). Individuals whose primary place of employment is within the District must also bring a printed business card or a check stub showing a business address within the District.
