(i.e. driver’s license or identification card) and a second item showing a current address (utility bill or personal check with name and address) to receive a card. Persons under 18 years of age are asked to bring their parent or guardian with them when they apply for a library card. Parents or guardians must have the necessary identification with them in order to register their child.
