Get A Library Card

Library Account FAQ

All who wish to apply for a library card must do so by the following requirements:

  1. Be at least 5 years of age. Persons under the age of 18 must have an adult sign them up to use the library under the parent or guardian's account.
  2. Have a photo ID and show proof of residency (city bill or other mail with current address). 

Individuals can now apply for a library account online! Individuals without a library account can apply online to receive access to all of our physical and digital content. Accounts for residents will not be activated until the individual provides proof of residency and shows a valid form of ID. If you already have a library account, you do not need to complete this application.
