Tooele City Public Library has outlined the specific requirements and procedures for residents and non-residents to obtain library cards.

Key takeaways

  • Adults 18 and over must provide proof of identification and residency.
  • Children under 18 require a parent or legal guardian to assume financial responsibility.
  • Non-residents of Tooele City living in Tooele County can purchase annual cards.
  • Identification names must match the library card application.

The Tooele City Public Library has provided instructions for individuals interested in obtaining a library card. The process varies based on age and residency status.

Adults aged 18 and over are required to provide proof of identification and residency. To qualify, the name on the library card application must match the name on the provided identification.

For those with a valid Utah driver's license or Utah ID card showing a current address, this serves as sufficient proof. Alternatively, individuals may use government-issued photo identification, such as a passport, military ID, permanent resident card, or an out-of-state driver's license, provided they also present one of the following documents listing their name and current address: lease agreements, mortgage papers, utility or cell phone bills, bank statements, paycheck stubs, government-issued correspondence, or home or car insurance.

Children under the age of 18 are eligible for library cards if a parent or legal guardian applies on their behalf and assumes financial responsibility for the card.

Non-residents living within Tooele County but outside of Tooele City may also apply for a library card. These individuals may purchase a card for a one-year period to borrow items, subject to the library's fee schedule.
