How To Get a Library Card

In October 1995, the Library Board of Trustees unanimously passed a motion requiring new applicants and re-registering patrons to have the following forms of identification:
1. A picture identification with the current home address, ie. driver's license, leisure pass.
2. A second piece of identification with home address, ie. utility bill, bank statement.
3. To issue a card to a child, the parent or guardian must have a library card or be eligible to receive a card.
 
All items used for identificaton MUST reflect the same name and address.
No credit cards or any other materials without an address are acceptable.
Handwritten materials or business cards are not acceptable proof.
Students may show their student identification cards.
If a NY State Drivers License is used as identification, it must reflect the Jericho School District address. The registrant must be willing to put the new Jericho address on the back of the license (in ink) and notify the Department of Motor Vehicles within 10 days.
A post office box will not be acceptable as a home address. Your new library card will be mailed to your home address.
