Library cards are only issued in person at the Reception Desk in the Library. Cards are free to any person who is a resident of California or is employed or attends school in California. A short-term card may be issued to temporary visitors to the state. Just fill out an application form, available at the Library, and present it and personal identification showing your current home address; such as a driver's license. For your convenience, a printable copy of the registration form is available online so that you may fill it out before coming to the library.

A parent or guardian must sign the application of children under 14.

Library cards are renewed every three years.

We use the information you supply to notify you of requested books and overdue items. If there is a change of name, street address, telephone number, or e-mail address please ask Library staff to update your record so that you will not miss any notices.

You are responsible for what is checked out on your card, so it is important to notify us if your card is lost or stolen.

There is a $1.00 charge for replacement cards.

Please note that library will only use the telephone numbers and e-mail addresses you supply to contact you regarding requested items and overdue materials. You may make your mailing address available to the Friends of the Pleasanton Public Library by giving permission on the application form.
