The public library in the town where you live, work, or study can help you get a library card. There is no charge for a library card, though some towns may ask a small fee for out-of-state residents or lost card replacements.
Each library has its own procedures for giving out cards. Most libraries will ask you for a form of identification or proof of residency, such a driver’s license and a piece of mail showing your current address.
Many libraries now allow you to get an eCard online, which you can then turn into a physical card when you visit the library.
