Who can get a library card, where can it be used?
<\/strong><\/span>Library cards are issued to residents by the public libraries in Rock County for free and grant the holder access to each public library in a four-county area including Rock County, Kenosha County, Racine County, and Walworth County. Use your library card barcode and personal identification number (PIN) to access the online account portal, reserve materials online, to use our online tools and so much more.<\/p>\n

How do I get a library card?
<\/strong>Option 1: Come to the library and get a permanent card. Bring an ID and proof of current residence (a mailed bill or another official document) to Clinton Public Library. You will be asked to fill out a short form and then you\u2019ll be issued a card.<\/span><\/p>\n

Option 2: Get an instant temporary card<\/b><\/span><\/a> online now, then convert it to a permanent card when you get a chance.
