Library Cards
Eligibility: Any person over the age of eighteen (18) who shows proof of a current residential address within the Town of Johnsburg may receive a Town of Johnsburg. Library card free of charge. Library cards will be valid for three (3) years. A suspended account may not be renewed until the account has been brought back into good standing. Library users are responsible for all materials checked out on his/her card. Library cards can be obtained at our circulation desk during normal library hours.
Children Aged 5-17 may obtain a library card for their child/children by meeting the same requirements. Parents must have a valid Town of Johnsburg Library card. Parents are financially responsible for all items borrowed on a child’s card.
Proof of residency: A photo ID with current address. Identification with only a post office box number will not be accepted. If a photo ID with a current address cannot be produced, a photo ID along with a significant piece of mail received at the current address will suffice. *‘Significant mail’ includes utility bills, phone bills, bank statements, lease agreements, car registrations, and any piece of mail deemed worthy of proving residency by the Director.
