Ventura County Library System

The Ventura County Library System includes 12 community branch libraries and a museum library.

The system offers books, magazines, book and music CDs, eBooks, audio books, streamable music, DVDs and more. A list of locations in the system is below. Visit the library website at www.vencolibrary.org for an online catalog and more information.

Your library card also gives you access to newspapers, language instruction, auto repair, genealogy resources and career tools. All of that, and there’s even more: find early literacy resources, encyclopedias, test preparation and biography, literature, science, and history databases.

The VC Library's online eLibrary is available 24/7 at www.vencolibrary.org/elibrary. Here is a sampling of apps available in the eLibrary:

  • Hoopla - streaming of movies, TV shows and albums

  • For eBook downloads, they offer CloudLibrary (popular fiction/nonfiction eAudiobooks), BookFLIX (for beginning readers with read-aloud feature), EBSCOhost eBooks (adult nonfiction) and others.

To check out books at the libraries and obtain materials online, you'll need to obtain a library card at any of the libraries in the Ventura County Library system. The initial card is free.

Although the VC Library System does not prefer this, you can check out books from one library in the system and return them to another one. 

The following libraries in Ventura County and nearby areas are run by municipalities and thus are not part of the Ventura County Library System. You can check out books at these other libraries but will need separate library cards at them.
