If you have a BPL eCard, physical BPL card, or a BPL account, then use that to access BPL online resources. Tips:
If you need help--e.g., you cannot access your BPL account or lost your physical card--then call or visit any BPL location.
If you have a BPL eCard account and lost the number, then complete the Card Number Retrieval Form with the same email address you used before. BPL will email you a reminder of your eCard number.
If you DO NOT have a BPL eCard or a physical BPL card, then:
Check your email for the eCard number–and remember your PIN. Use this info to access the online resources (Credo and Gale eBooks).
