Getting a Library Card

Your library card is good at any South Central Library System public library in Wisconsin (serving Adams, Columbia, Dane, Green, Portage, Sauk and Wood counties).

Applying for a library card

Your first library card is available free of charge.  A replacement card costs $1.

You must apply in person and show:

  1. Photo identification (drivers license or state ID card)
    AND
  2. Proof of residency (driver’s license, checkbook, utility bill, or recent piece of mail with your current address printed on it)

Download a library card application (PDF) and bring it to the library with you to expedite service.

Do you pick up materials for your family but want to do so without their library card? Download a Holds Authorization form (PDF) and bring it with you to authorize you to pick up each others books and materials.

Parents must sign the application form of children under the age of 16.

Not a resident of Oregon?  We can probably provide you with a library card.  Please ask!

Please inform us about any change of residential address, phone number, or email address.
