Fee-based library cards Menu
You can visit the Libraries seven days a year for no cost. To continue to use the libraries, you will need to purchase a non-refundable Library Card. You must complete the online application for a Stanford Libraries library card before you visit; no walk-ins will be accepted. We will send instructions for paying for your library card after we receive your application. You can renew your card by submitting another application. Lost card replacement fee is $25.
Please note: Fee-based cardholders are not eligible for off-campus access to e-resources, interlibrary borrowing, or lockers/carrels in Green Library.
