Library cards are free and available at the circulation desk. They can be used at any library within the Old Colony Library Network (OCLN).

How it Works

To register, bring a driver’s license or another valid form of identification that includes proof of your current address. Children of any age can apply for a library card; however, applications for those aged 14 and younger must include a parent or guardian's signature. If you lose your library card, a replacement is available for a $1.00 fee.

Online Library eCards
Register online for a Library eCard to access downloadable eBooks, and reference databases, and place holds on items in the OCLN system. Please note that eCards are temporary and should be upgraded to a permanent card at the circulation desk.
