Getting a card is easy; bring the needed items, and in only a few minutes, you will begin to discover what awaits you at TCPL! Find out what you should bring to get a library card here.

Today’s libraries are vibrant community centers offering much more than just books. Your library card helps everyone do more of what they enjoy without stretching their budget. TCPL offers Wi-Fi hotspots for checkout so you can complete essential job applications, school work, or research at home. Our library staff can also help you navigate technology questions. Are you interested in trying a new hobby or skill? TCPL can help. Your library offers endless books to learn more about hobbies and talents.

HISTORY OF LIBRARY CARD SIGN-UP MONTH

Declared and celebrated by the American Library Association and libraries all across the country since 1987, the month of September is dedicated to reminding people of all ages that a library card isn’t just the new fall fashion. A library card grants patrons access to literacy services, technology, educational programming, and endless resources. Wow. That’s a lot of power in one wallet-sized plastic card. And guess what? It’s F R E E! I don’t know about you, but free is our favorite price.
