Can we participate in programs if we don't have a library card?Sure! We welcome anyone to be a part of our library community. Even if you don't have a card, you may attend programs, use our computers or wifi, and hang out in our space. Of course, getting a library card has many benefits including all access to both our physical and digital collections. If you aren't eligible for a free card with us, you have options: If you live in an area that doesn't pay any taxes for library services (also known as unserved), you can purchase a card with us for $45/annually. If you already have access to a library and they don't work with us (have a reciprocal agreement or let our users borrow from them and vice versa), then you may want to consider a Public Library Access Card or PLAC card. For $65/year this card is your pass to any library in the state of Indiana (psst...worth it if you buy many eBooks or eAudiobooks).
