We partner with your organization

Brought to you by your library or your employer

Library Chef works hand in hand with public libraries and companies. When your organization invites you to join, it means it has opened Library Chef for its members: you sign up with your library card or with the code your organization gave you, and everything is included.

  • Library patrons

    Your library offers Library Chef to its card holders. Have your library card number or library code ready.

  • Employees

    Your company offers Library Chef to its team. Use the company code shared by your employer.
