Sign up for a Library card online

You can sign up for a WVML card online. Just fill out the form and we’ll email you back with your barcode and PIN number. Please be sure to include the name of the school you attend (or work at).

School District 45 students and staff who live outside of West Vancouver need a special code on their account that tells us that they attend or work at a West Vancouver school (we likely put this code on when you signed up for your card—if you can access one of the resources below, you’re set!).

If your WVML card doesn’t work to access the resources below, or you don’t know your PIN, contact us. We’ll help you!
