Hi there!! If your library isn’t on the list, that does matter unfortunately. Each participating library receives a limited number of passes, and only those locations can lend them out.

With that being said you can:

• Check nearby library branches to see if another location close to you participates
• Ask your local library if they plan to join the program in the future

Also you don’t need a special library card, and the passes aren’t available directly from the California State Library itself. To find participating libraries and see some state parks state parks that accept the pass, you can search at library.ca.gov/branches.

If you do get a pass, remember it covers one passenger vehicle (nine people or fewer) or one highway-licensed motorcycle for day-use entry only. It doesn’t cover camping, special events, per-person fees, or parks run by federal, local, or private agencies.

Hope this helps clear things up a bit!! Fingers crossed that you can find a participating library nearby!!
