MEMBER

Membership at the Institute Library is more than a borrowing card—it’s a way to participate in and sustain a nearly 200-year tradition of reading, learning, and community. As a Reader, you’ll enjoy borrowing privileges while helping support our collections, public programs, and the care of our historic Library.

New to the Library? Start with an Introductory Membership your first year. After your first year, renew as an Individual, Family, or Patron and continue helping the Library thrive.
