What a treasure. This site is extremely useful for non readers of all ages. My children just love it. I have shared this site with many of our special needs teachers across our county. Thanks so much for providing such a fun, affordable, and worthwhile product.

We love TumbleBooks!!! I should add the kids do, too!! TumbleBooks has allowed us to introduce a vast collection of books to students and they W A N T to read. It gives them choice, gives them some control over their own learning, all while at an appropriate reading level. What could be better?

I love this site! The fact that the levels of books available are so far-reaching makes this a wonderful site for classrooms---virtually any child can utilize the features on this site. The book report feature is great as well--right along with many of the standards we are teaching in our classrooms, and a great tool for guiding students. The quizzes offer students feedback, and also encouragement as they continue to read. This promotes a feeling of success among students, and furthers their love for literature and reading.

This is the best interactive read aloud website I have found. My students and I love it. We can always locate a book easy that connects to what we have been studying. The students love to watch the pictures, and as they progress with their decoding skills they pick out words that they know. When we watch one of these books, I have to pause it after every page so they can find all their sight words that are on the page. The website makes it like have a celebrity reader in our room daily. Thank you so much for your wonderful reading website.

To access all resources in this column, you will need your library card number and a PIN. Sign up here for a library card.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
If you are a Massachusetts resident and don't already have a Boston Public Library card, you can register for one online.

If you are renewing your eCard, use the same email address you used when you originally registered.

Registering and Renewing Your eCard

An eCard is a Boston Public Library card that you can sign up for online and which provides access to all online resources, including OverDrive and Hoopla.

eCards are available to anyone who lives, resides part-time to attend school, owns property, or works in Massachusetts.

eCards do not allow you to check out physical items such as museum passes, CDs, DVDs, and physical books. To check out physical items, you need a physical card.

Register for an eCard if you meet any of the following criteria:

Your primary residence is in Massachusetts.

You are living in Massachusetts for most of the year while attending school in-state.

You commute to a Massachusetts employer on a sustained and regular basis. (Your primary place of work.) Learn more.

You own property (real estate) in Massachusetts. Learn more.

Other Restrictions
If you are a short-term resident staying in Massachusetts you are not eligible for an eCard. However, you can visit any of our locations and apply for a research card in-person at the Central Library in Copley Square.

If you have any other card with the BPL, you are not eligible for an eCard (and don't need one!)

Children under 13 years of age are ineligible for an eCard due to COPPA restrictions.

If you have any questions about eligibility, please email websupport@bpl.org.

No. Your physical library card provides all the benefits of eCards plus access to the physical collection, including museum passes.

Requesting and borrowing physical materials, including museum passes, requires a physical card. eCards can be upgraded to physical cards at any BPL location.

Our mission is to serve residents of Massachusetts, but we recognize that people who own a residence in the state pay real estate taxes here. If your name is listed on the deed of a residence in Massachusetts, either as an owner or a current trustee of a residence held in trust, you likely qualify for this exception.

If the residence you have in mind doesn't list you on the deed, but is owned by other family members, you likely do not qualify.

Timeshare ownership does not qualify an individual for the property owner exception to residency.

If you're still unsure whether you qualify as a property owner, email us at websupport@bpl.org.

Our mission is to serve residents of Massachusetts, but we recognize that people who live in neighboring states may pay Massachusetts income tax because they work for an employer in Massachusetts. If your primary place of work is in Massachusetts, that usually means this exception applies to you.

If you only travel to Massachusetts to attend meetings, work with clients, volunteer, or temporarily work at a location in the state, you are unlikely to qualify.

If you're still unsure whether you qualify as a commuter, email us at websupport@bpl.org.

We're unable to accept eCard registrations and renewals submitted from outside the country due to security and licensing concerns. Please submit the form when you've returned from your trip.

Please note that many of our online resources also may not be available for use outside the United States due to vendor licensing restrictions.

Only eligible individual users may register for eCards. Organizations may not register for eCards.

Library cards for corporations, businesses, libraries, and other organizations must be obtained in person at any of our locations.

Institutional cards provide borrowing and interlibrary loan privileges, but do not allow remote access to electronic resources, due to vendor licensing restrictions.

All eCards can be upgraded by visiting any BPL location. Bring photo ID and proof of your Massachusetts address. A Massachusetts driver's license or ID meets both requirements.

After you upgrade, you should still be able to see your active holds, checkouts, and other digital activity when you log in with your new library card credentials.

However, if we need to create a whole new borrower record for you, we may need to transfer your activity to the new account. You can email us at websupport@bpl.org to transfer your holds and checkouts in OverDrive to your new card. Please send the old and new library card numbers.

Managing Your eCard Account

You can renew your eCard 10 days before it expires or later. Just complete the registration form again using the same email address that's in your account. We'll find the expired account and send you an email confirmation of your renewal.
You cannot renew physical library cards online.

You should still be able to see your active holds, checkouts, and other digital activity when you log in with your new library card credentials.

However, if we need to create a whole new borrower record for you though, we may need to transfer your activity to the new account. You can email us at websupport@bpl.org to transfer your holds and checkouts in OverDrive to your new card. Please send the old and new library card numbers.

Chicken Little

A modern adaptation of the classic tale: What happens when a completely normal chicken believes everything he reads on the internet? This story is written in the present tense, because it's a good thing to learn.

The Bird and the Whale

Our first ever original story, about a bird and a whale and their shared love of little fish. Inspired by a song by Tom Waits, and an episode of Adventure Time.

The Three Little Pigs

The classic tale of shoddy building materials, DIY folly, and the perils of emparedados de tocino (a.k.a bacon sandwiches). No pigs or wolves were harmed in the making of this story.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

Why you should probably lock your door when you go out for a walk, even if you live en medio de un gran bosque. Why are the three bowls of sopa different temperatures when they were poured at the same time? Science, is why.

Little Red Riding Hood

A deeply troubling investigation into what happens when you let your children walk somewhere alone: Caperucita Roja eats fresas, picks margaritas and talks to el Gran Lobo Feroz on the way to Grandma's house. (Warning: Contains highly improbable medical scenes.)
