Children 3 and older can get a library card with a parent or legal guardian.

Your library card is your gateway to many of our services, including books, digital media, and online databases.

Library cards expire once every three years as an opportunity to update account information such as a new address or contact number. An expired account will not have access to library resources until the information is updated.  

You may have 40 physical items checked out at one time with certain limits to specific formats.  

Items will automatically renew for two additional checkout periods if the item is not requested by another patron.  

Holds can be placed in person, by phone, through your online account, or through the Library's mobile app.

You may request items with the Suggestion for Purchase form. Garland County residents may request books through the fee-based interlibrary loan service.

Most items may be checked out for three weeks. Certain media may be checked out for one week.

The library no longer charges overdue fines for late item returns. Learn more about our decision to go fine-free here.
