Library cards

Obtaining a Library Card:

Ohio residents, property owners, or those working or attending school in Ohio may register for a card. 

  • For adults, registration and a photo ID that includes name and current address are required. 
  • If photo ID does not reflect the current mailing address, alternative proof of address (such as bank or utility statement) is required.
  • Those under 18 may apply for a library card, with registration completed and signed by a parent or guardian.
  • Those under 12 do not receive a physical card, but may access privileges by giving their name at checkout.

Online Access

If you don't have a current library card but qualify for one as an Ohioan, you may register for an eCard online to access electronic materials only. 

  • You will be assigned a barcode that begins with 'PACREG' to use along with your password to establish a library account and check out electronic materials from OverDrive. 
  • In compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (CIPA), you must be 13 or older to complete this registration, click here to register for an eCard
  • Please include your mailing address on your registration.

Lost Library Cards

Notify the library immediately if your library card is lost or stolen to prevent unauthorized use.  Materials checked out on a card not reported lost or stolen will be the responsibility of the card holder. Lost cards can be replaced for $1.00.

Reserves / Renewals

Reserves may be placed on most materials. Most items can be renewed at least once if there is no "hold" on the item. You can reserve or renew items in your account in the catalog. If you are unable to do so there, it may be because of the amount outstanding on your account, or your account may have expired and needs to be updated. You can also call the library or email us and make requests for reserves or renewals. This can also be done in person.
