Patrons can obtain a virtual library card online by visiting the PINES Catalog and clicking on the Apply for a PINES Library Card Link option in the green bar.

Patrons who register online get assigned a library e-card (note: don't forget to write it down) that provides immediate access to e-resources, such as ebooks, eaudiobooks, and magazines through Libby. The library card does not allow access to physical items such as placing holds or checking out physical books.

The account expires after 1 year. In order to renew or upgrade to a full physical library card, patrons must visit any PINES library and presenting their ID and proof of GA address.
