Hi, you do not need a library card to use our available space to study and to browse the shelves. But you do need one if you need to use our other services, such as public computer, borrowing materials, and to access our database remotely. You can apply for our library card here: https://www.nypl.org/library-card
Yes, you need a library card to check out movies and DVD. To study there no fee for that
