eCard Help
The KCKPL eCommunity eCard provides immediate access to public library eContent and databases. You won't need an ecard though if you already have a regular Kansas City, Kansas Public library card. If you need assistance with getting an eCard, check out this tutorial.
To qualify for an eCard, you must reside in the greater Kansas City Metro, this includes Wyandotte, Johnson, Platte, Clay, and Jackson County. Please see the map on the right, which highlights the metro area included.

Yearbook Help
If you have questions about yearbooks or other materials in the Library's Kansas Collection, please contact our Kansas Collection Librarian.
Thanks are due to the individuals and organizations which have donated yearbooks to the Library's Kansas Collection for digitizing. Thanks also to The Sumner High School Alumni Association which provided scanned copies of the Sumner High School yearbooks and reunion books.
Please note that the Kansas City, Kansas Public Library does not have yearbook copies available for sale and the Kansas City, Kansas Public School District does not have historical yearbook copies for sale.
