FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
LIBRARY CARDS
A library card allows you to do more than simply borrow
books and other materials. You can also use your card to
access the public computers and the online databases.
How do I get a library card:
Adults and Teens:
A library card is free to any citizen who lives in the East Albemarle
Regional Library System (Pasquotank, Camden, Currituck and Dare). If you
do not live in one of the four counties you must pay a yearly fee of $15.00 to
obtain a library card. In order to get a card you must furnish identification (e.g.
current North Carolina driver’s license, rent receipt, property tax receipt, utility
receipt…).
Children:
Children, birth through age 13, may receive a library card. Children may
be present to receive their cards, but their presence is not required. Their
applications must be signed and completed by a parent or guardian. The parent
or guardian must have a valid library card.
What is a PIN and how do I get one?
A PIN is a 4 digit number that provides an extra level of security when using
your library card to reserve books, renew items by phone, or look up your
personal information in the Catalog. The last 4 digits of your telephone
number will be assigned as your PIN when you receive a library card. You can
change your PIN at anytime by accessing MY ACCOUNT.
What should I do if I lose my card?
You should report the lost card at once to your Library. You are responsible
for materials taken out with the card until it is reported lost or stolen.
Is there a charge for a replacement card?
The cost for a replacement
card is $1.00.
