How Do I? 

To get a library card, visit the library to complete registration. You must have a photo ID and proof of current address. Print out the application form or get an application form at your library.

Library cards are free for all Plum Creek Residents. Lost cards can be replaced for $1.00 at the library.

There is no age limit for cards, but the parent or guardian of the child must be present and provide a photo ID and proof of address as they would for their own card.
