Applying for a teacher card can be done at any library location’s Customer Service Department.
To apply for a Teacher Card, in addition to other required forms of acceptable ID, applicants must show a recent pay stub from the school, preschool, or daycare where employed. Other acceptable verifications include a homeschool letter dated within the year, school photo ID from the current school year, or a signed letter from an administrator on school letterhead stating the individual is a teacher. In addition to all the privileges of Full Access cards, Teacher Cards allow a six (6) week loan period for items, but with no renewals. Two (2) lost items per school year will be allotted to the account if necessary. Most items from the collection can be checked out using an Educator/Teacher Card with the exception of QuickPicks, video games, Nature Backpacks, Experience Passes, and Launchpads. Teacher Cards are good for three (3) years.
If you homeschool your children, you are eligible for a teacher card. Please provide your state-issued documentation stating that you homeschool your children.
