Get a Library Card

If you live in the Reddick Public Library District, you are entitled to a library card free as part of your tax-supported library service.

 

Your library card allows you to:

  • Borrow items from Reddick Library and from most other public libraries in Illinois.
  • Use online subscription databases to find magazine articles and other information not available just by searching the internet.
  • Attend programs and activities at Reddick Library.

 

Getting a New Library Card

The requirements for obtaining a Reddick Library card are a picture ID and proof of residency. All library cards will be mailed to your address and are valid for two years. A person under the age of 18 needs a parent or legal guardian present to obtain a card.

 

If your photo ID has your current address in Reddick Public Library District:

Provide one proof of residency from the following:
    Tax bill *Required for out-of-city resident*

    Voter’s card
    Current utility bill
    Lease agreement
    Recent pay stub with address
    Official mail (no personal letters)
    Checkbook

    Vehicle registration

 

If your photo ID does not have your current address in Reddick Public Library District:

Provide two proofs of residency and a picture ID. See above list. 

 

Renewing a Current Library Card

A valid photo ID with proof of residency is necessary. If your photo ID does not have your current address, please use the list above to provide one additional proof of residency.

If the library has received returned mail on your account, you will need to show two items (see list above) to verify your address.

If your library card is not current (it’s more than six months expired and no longer in our computer database), you will need to obtain a new library card.
