A person of any age can obtain a free library card at any of the County Library locations. Simply complete a library card application, provide a photo ID and a proof of current mailing address. Any item mailed to the potential patron can work as a proof of address (such as current utility bill or recent bank statement). The first card is free but costs $2.00 to replace a lost card. Children under the age of 17 require a parent/legal guardian to complete a library card application. Most library cards can be processed during your visit to the library.
