Get a Card

                                                                             

Who can get a card

Residents of Aledo ISD or Parker County, TX, ages 11+ are eligible for a free library card with

  1. valid photo ID issued by government or school,
  2. proof of current address
  3. current contact information, and
  4. signature agreeing to borrower policies.

Any child ages 6-10, with card-holding parent or guardian present, is eligible for their own free library card. The parent or guardian ultimately assumes responsibility for all items borrowed on a minor's library card.

For children under the age of 6, the parent or guardian will need to use their own library card to borrow items.

How to Get a Card

To apply for a free card, eligible residents may either

  • fill out a short form in person, or
  • complete an application form online

Regardless of whether the form is completed in person or online, however, an applicant must come to Aledo Public Library in person to have their card issued and activated. This is necessary to:

  • present the verification documents above, and
  • sign the registration form agreeing to borrower policies.

Lost Cards

If you lose your card, we encourage you to contact us for a free replacement to protect your account. We reserve the right to charge a small fee after the third replacement.

Using Your Card

Please see library policies for additional details on the use of library resources and facilities.

Revocation of Access

Your library card and borrowing privileges may be revoked if you fail to follow library policies. Reasons for revocation include, but are not limited to, failing to provide proper identification (driver's license or passport), viewing pornography on public computers, failing to pay fines or charges when notified, consistently losing or damaging items, using false identification, using someone else's unauthorized card, and/or misconduct in the library.
