Your library card - your responsibility
Library cards remain the property of the library at all times. It is your responsibility to take proper care of it. You need to bring your card with you each time you visit the library.
Please inform us if you:
- change your address or contact details (so that we can update your user record); or
- lose your card (so that it can be cancelled and a new one issued);
Replacement cards can be issued at a cost of $2.00. You cannot borrow from the library without your card.
