Get A Teacher Library Card

Ohio educators have the opportunity to obtain a Teacher Card. A Teacher Loan library card will be issued to any teacher upon request. If the teacher is currently registered for a personal library card it must be in good standing. Upon determination of eligibility for a Teacher Loan library card, any existing personal library card will be changed to a Teacher Loan card. The teacher loan application must be signed by the teacher’s building administrator. In the case of a home school educator, the individual must present a copy of the “excused from school attendance” letter received from the appropriate school district superintendent. A Teacher Loan is for 30 days for print juvenile books. All other items are subject to standard loan periods. Teacher card applications may be obtained at the Circulation Desk or by clicking here.
