Join the library

 

There are two ways to join your local library:

 

1. Join the library online

 

You can join the library for free online and get a temporary membership.

 

You will get a registration number by email, which allows you to:

 

• search our library catalogue for items

• book onto library events 
• use our e-library

You cannot reserve items with a temporary membership. Temporary memberships last for a period of two years.

 

To get full library membership, take your registration number to your local library. You will also be able to:

 

• collect your library card

• change your membership type if you want to

 

You will need to bring identification that includes your name and address. This can be a driving licence, bank statement or recent utility bill.

 

2. Join at the library

If you ever need to change your details, you can do this by logging on to your online library account.

Library notifications

 

If we need to contact you about reservations, overdue items or anything else, we will drop you a line by email, text or voicemail.
