• Identification can be established through:
any current picture identification issued by a governmental agency
a current driver’s license
a school identification card
a military identification card
a passport
a birth certificate
a social security card
• Residence is verified by:
a piece of mail received at current street address with a recent postmark, such as a utility bill, a bank statement, or a letter
a lease agreement
a personal check with name and current address imprinted on it
For registration of a child under 18, a parent or guardian must have a library card in good standing, show identification and verification of residence, sign the child’s application, and assume responsibility for materials borrowed and for any fees or fines on the child’s card.
Library cards are issued for three years and can be renewed for free by showing verification of identity and current address.
To replace a lost or misplaced library card, there is a $2.00 replacement fee. Lost or stolen cards should be reported as soon as possible to prevent unauthorized use of the library card account.
