Get a library card
Applications for a Raquette Lake Library card are available at the Library. Residency is
not a requirement. There are no fees associated with applying for a library card. The
requirements for obtaining a library card are a valid driver’s license, non driver’s license
ID, or passport and proof of current address, which are to be presented with the
application.
Applications can be obtained and submitted in person at the Raquette Lake Library.
Applications can also be downloaded here and proof of ID/address mailed to the Library
at P.O. Box 129, Raquette Lake, NY 13436 or emailed to cdufft@sals.edu .
The library card is not transferable. Only the person issued the card may use it.
However, parents may borrow items for their children on their card or items for
themselves on their child’s card. Children 8 and over may apply for their own library
card.
By registering for a card, the applicant agrees to follow the rules and policies
established by the Raquette Lake Library and to be responsible for all materials
borrowed on their card.
Library cards may be used at other member libraries in the Southern Adirondack and
Mohawk Valley Library Systems. Check with the library you wish to borrow from
about their borrowing policies.
Only patrons in good standing may borrow materials subject to the Library’s policy. To
be in good standing, a patron cannot have any outstanding debt incurred through lost
or damaged items.
