Can I use DPLA resources without a library card?
Asked a month ago
Yes, users can access many Digital Public Library of America resources without needing a library card. DPLA provides a wealth of information, including digitized texts, images, and multimedia content, that is freely available to the public. This accessibility is a key aspect of DPLA's mission to democratize knowledge and cultural heritage. Users typically can search and explore the extensive collections directly on the DPLA website. However, while most resources do not require a library card, some linked content provided through partner institutions may have specific access restrictions and could require a library card or account for full access. It is always advisable to check the particular terms or access requirements on the DPLA website for specific resources you may be interested in.
