Queens Public Library Resources
To obtain a Queens Public Library card, visit a local branch near you or apply for an eCard online.
Queens Public Library has a wide range of online and in-person resources and activities to keep students engaged and reading all summer long!
Culture Pass is a program that allows library cardholders ages 13 and up to reserve passes and obtain free admission to over 80 of our local cultural institutions.
*eCardholders are not able to reserve passes. You must have a valid physical library card to reserve online.
Brainfuse HelpNow provides free live online tutoring to support students with homework help and studying in all subject areas. Users will need to login with their Queens Public Library card number and PIN.
Please find their availability on their homepage.
