eCard

To get an eCard, applicants must provide a valid name, address, email, and phone number and must not have a current CLEVNET card.

Full-Service Card

To get a full-service library card, a current state of Ohio issued picture ID such as a driver’s license, with your current address on it, is preferred. If you do not have a current state of Ohio issued picture ID, two current forms of proof of identity are required. This can be a school or work ID, bank statement, utility bill, lease or other identification judged acceptable by the Head of Circulation, Manager, Assistant Manager or person in charge. Proof of current address must be presented. If a utility bill, bank statement, or something similar is used as proof of identity, it must be no older than 4 months.

Under 18

A signature of a parent or guardian is required for a full-service card for children under 18. The parent or guardian is responsible for the appropriateness of materials used by the child, including electronic information, and for payment of charges incurred with the card. The parent/guardian will receive a letter advising him/her of these responsibilities when the application for a child’s library card is made.

Out of State

Out of state and/or temporary residents must have a local address in the Willoughby-Eastlake or surrounding communities to obtain a full-service library card. They must also present a form of identification showing their current permanent address.

Additional Guidelines

• A library card is required to check out materials. Customers without a card in hand can either complete the library lookup form or present a driver’s license to the circulation staff.
• Cardholders are responsible for all materials borrowed on their card. They should report lost or stolen cards immediately.
• Library card replacement fee is $1.00.
• Cardholders should inform the library of changes in address, e-mail address or phone number as soon as possible.
• Only one CLEVNET card per person.
