ACQUIRING A LIBRARY CARD

Regular Library Cards: Fremont County residents age 16 and over may be issued a regular card by presenting a valid driver’s license or photo ID issued by a state or federal authority. If the current local mailing address is not on the photo ID, an additional proof of a local mailing address or a local PO Box is required, for example:

•Piece of mail delivered within the last 30 days to the resident’s mailing address

•Pay stub issued within the last 30 days that includes the resident’s mailing address

•Vehicle registration with current mailing address

•Current rental or lease contract

When a local PO Box is provided, the patron’s physical address will be included on the library account.

Children and Youth Library Cards: Parent/s or legal guardian/s must fill out the Parent/Legal Guardian Permission form and verify the local Fremont County mailing address of their minor child before a card is issued. The parent’s library account must be in good standing before a child is issued a library card.

Library card privileges must be renewed every two years.

A valid driver’s license or photo ID issued by a state or federal authority and proof of local address or local employment is required.

A maximum of 3 items may be borrowed at one time on a Temporary library card. Temporary library cards expire in 6 months.
