Educator Library Cards
This special status card lets you check out most library materials without having to pay overdue fines. Library cards with teacher status are good through the school year and need to be re-registered each August. Though you do not accrue fines except on DVDs and videos, we ask that you respect the library due dates.
Educator Request for Materials
Let the Library gather books and materials for your class. Fill out an Educator Request form here and fax it to us or bring it in to one of our locations. Or give us a call, and we'll fill out the form for you!
