Get access to even MORE free resources with the Boston Public Library eCard!

If you are living or working in Massachusetts either as a student or as an employee, you are eligible for a free Boston Public Library eCard! That means, since you go to NMH, you can get a BPL eCard!

With the BPL eCard you have access to all of the Boston Public Library's online resources — you can download eBooks and audiobooks, you can access language learning and test prep materials, and even do research via the BPL's databases.

Registering is super easy and takes only a few minutes.

Just follow the prompts and be sure to use your NMH mailing address and your NMH email. 

You will be asked to create a 4-digit pin number. Be sure that the number you choose is easy for you to remember. 

After you have submitted all of your info, check your email inbox for a confirmation email. This email will contain your library card number. If you want to connect your library card to Libby so that you can access your eBooks and audiobooks from your phone, you will need your library card number and your pin. The same goes for connecting to Kanopy, a streaming film and documentary service.
