A+ Student Card

Howard County Library System and Howard County Public School System have launched a new A+ Student Card to make it easier for all students to access HCLS eContent in the classsroom, at home or anywhere they need to do homework or research. The new A+ initiative delivers HCLS' extensive catalogue of eContent directly to the classroom.

The A+ card is a virtual card. It can be accessed by having your student login to the public library via the hcpss.me site. Students will need to login using their technology username and password. Once logged in, the student's name and scannable barcode will appear. This will allow students to use the services online (the online account will automatically authenticate by following these steps.) To use the card in person at the library, just repeat the login process on a smartphone and present the barcode at check out.

During Media classes students have been and will continue to be shown how to access their card.

Thank you,
