The City of San Jos offers free library cards to all residents of the state of California. You can get a card at any of our branches or at the Dr. King Main Library. You will need to fill out an application form and provide identification and proof of your current address. Application forms are available in English, Spanish, Vietnamese and Chinese. The following list includes IDs that are acceptable in our system.
Kids can get a library card, too.
If you are under 18, you will need to have the signature of your parent or guardian on the library card application. Once you get the card you have the same borrowing privileges as adults. Having a library card is an important responsibility. List of Valid IDs You Can Use to Get a Library Card. Current California driver's license with picture.
