    Article summary

    To get a library card at the Jefferson County Public Library, you must be at least 5 years old. Minors aged 5 to 17 residing in the county can obtain a library card, with the sponsorship of an adult who assumes responsibility for fees, fines, and payment for late, lost, or damaged materials. Additionally, there are options for students attending a K-12 school located within Jefferson County and nonresidents. Please refer to the library's BORROWER SERVICES POLICY for detailed information on eligibility and account types.
