Membership

Sears think[box] is a free and public-access facility. We welcome everyone to join our community to create, innovate, and explore. Access to think[box] resources requires registering for a membership.

To become a member of the think[box] community, we'll have you register for a think[box] ID card. A think[box] ID card is like a library card. You'll scan your card at our welcome desk to sign in.

If you are a member of any of the following organizations your membership is automatic and you may sign in with your institutional ID card:

• Case Western Reserve University (CWRU)
• Cleveland Institute of Music (CIM)
• Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA)
• University Hospitals (UH)

Member Registration at think[box]

There are two steps to member registration at think[box]. There's no cost associated with think[box] membership.

Step 1

Fill out our Registration Form. When you submit the form you will receive a confirmation number by text and/or email. We recommend you do this before you come to think[box]. Otherwise, we will have you fill it out at our welcome desk.

If you are a parent or guardian bringing a minor to think[box], you must also fill out a Minor Registration Form on their behalf. Please see our K-12 policies for more information.

Step 2

When you come to think[box] we'll complete your registration at the front desk. We'll do three things:

1. Ask for your confirmation number.
2. Take your picture.
3. Scan your photo ID (driver's license, passport, school/military ID, etc).

Once you have a think[box] ID card you're a member! You will scan your ID at our welcome desk to sign in each time you visit.
