Your library card is the key to the resources of the library. It is issued free of charge to Geneva Library District residents for a 3 year period. All applicants will be asked to provide proof of residency in the district and a local contact person. Applicants under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign their application. Non-residents may obtain a card for a determined fee.
Borrowers are responsible for all materials charged on their card.
Lost or stolen cards should be reported immediately to prevent unauthorized use. A valid library card will allow a patron to utilize all public libraries in DLS and most public libraries in the State of Illinois. The first overdue notice is sent when material is 10 days overdue and a final statement is sent when material is 35 days overdue. Postage costs incurred to send overdue notices are added to the fines. New adult books, holiday and seasonal materials, periodicals, books on tape, compact discs, cassettes, children's puzzles and kits are loaned for 2 weeks.
