How to Get a Library Card

Lewis County Residents

Library cards are available to Lewis County residents aged 5 and older. To obtain a library card, simply present your valid ID with proof of your local mailing address and fill out a short application. Parents must sign as the responsible party for children and teens under 16. Your first library card is free.

Licensed daycare and preschool facilities located in Lewis County are also eligible to apply for a “corporate” card which allows them to borrow materials for use in their facilities. 

Non-Residents

Those not residing in Lewis County will be charged an annual fee of $15 to obtain a library card. The non-resident fee will be waived for individuals who provide a Tennessee Library Card (TLC) from a qualifying library along with a valid ID. 

Fees / Renewals / Loan Periods

Replacement Cards

A replacement fee of $1.50 will be charged for a lost or stolen library card. 

Library Card Renewal

Library cards are always valid, as long as they are used at least once yearly. Any card, including expired cards, can be renewed for one year by verifying the current address and telephone.

Loan Periods

Books, movies, audiobooks, and magazines have a 3-week checkout period.  Books may be renewed as long as there are no reserves placed on them.

Hotspots and Chromebooks have a 1 week checkout period. Due to high demand, hotspots and Chromebooks are not renewable.

Additional information

Please consult with library and archives staff for more information concerning accepted forms of photo identification, card borrowing limits, policies concerning overdue material, and damaged or lost item fees.
