Your Library Card number is under the barcode on the back of your Library Card. Most start with 1000... or 999... 

To protect accounts from theft, we do not give out numbers over the phone or through chat. You can email Customer Service at circ.link@austintexas.gov to ask for a lost card number or we will need to see a photo ID in person to provide you with your library card number.

Have you registered with the catalog and know your username? If so, you can look up your number in your account.

  1. Log into My APL: My Settings using your username and password.
     
  2. The default view shows your Library Card number as hidden. To reveal it, click display at the end of Barcode

Barcode is show as: ************** with a link to display the real number.


This is useful if you temporarily don't have access to your card, such as when you're traveling and want to use eBooks from our Digital Resources.

If you suspect you have permanently lost your Library Card, contact Customer Service at 512-974-7475 to freeze your account. You are responsible for any unauthorized use of a lost or stolen card.
