How do I know if I'm eligible?

As long as you have an active library membership in good standing at one of the participating libraries you are eligible.

Want a card from another library?

Follow these three simple steps…

Bring your library card from your ‘home library’ to the partner branch you’d like to borrow from.

Bring identification to confirm your address.

Staff will check that your account is in good standing at your home library and get you all set up.
