If you live in our service area, you may get a library card free of charge, as part of your tax-supported library service.

Your library card allows you to:

• Borrow books from us and from other public libraries in Illinois or beyond.
• Use special online collections to find magazine articles and information you can't get just by searching the web.

To get a library card, you must come in to the library to fill out an application form.  You must provide proof of identification.  If you've recently moved and don't yet have a current picture id, please bring in something to verify your new address (eg. a piece of mail).  Your library card is free the first time; replacements for lost cards are $3.00.  Children under the age of 14 must have a parent or guardian signature.
