Don’t have a library card? You can get one instantly through the NYPL’s SimplyE app; that card will get you immediate access to hundreds of thousands of NYPL e-books, but for physical materials and any other databases (like Kanopy), you will need to go to a branch, and “upgrade” your e-card to a full access library card.
