Where can I find my card number and PIN?
Your library card number is the entire number (with no spaces) under the barcode on your library card. The default PIN number for each card is the last four digits of the phone number on the library card account. If the first PIN you try doesn't work, please try the last four digits of any alternate numbers you may have provided when signing up for your library card.
