Library Card Eligibility

To be issued a library card a person must be physically present and provide adequate identification.

The library will make exceptions to the physically-present rule for:

1. Children whose parents present the registration form given to them in the hospital read-aloud packet or who come in and fill out a registration form for their child. The requesting parent must present adequate identification.
2. Persons physically unable to come to a library outlet who send another to get a library card for them. The person representing the disabled person must have their own identification. The card will be mailed to the card holder along with information about the library’s home-bound program.
3. Students who are absent from a classroom visit whose teacher brings along a completed application form. The student’s card will be mailed to the student’s home address. 

The library reserves the right to determine the library privileges each borrower will receive and reserves the right to limit such privileges.

Oshkosh Public Library provides equal opportunity for services without regard to  race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation, or mental or physical handicap.
