Students whose parents opted in on Aeries during school registration now have a Student Success Card (SSC).
To find out if you have an SSC click this link: Do I have an SSC card?
SSC card number is 21447000+ID number. Do not include the + symbol.
The pin number is (usually) the last four digits of parent cell number.
Students with SSC cards can check out up to 3 print library books and access all of SBPL's digital resources.

Students who do not have an SSC (and are 13 or older) can still apply for (and receive immediately) a library ecard with parent or guardian permission. This option works for students with a Santa Barbara zipcode.
Students who do not have an SSC (and are 13 or older) can still apply for (and receive immediately) a temporary library card. You can pick up your permanent library card when you visit the Goleta Public Library.
