Library Cards
A library card is all you need to borrow materials from the Kiowa County Library. It’s free and available to all local area residents. Visit the library for an application. Photo ID and proof of address are required and patrons under the age of 16 will need a parent or guardian co-sign their application.
Acceptable forms of identification include:
- Driver’s License with current address
- State ID with current address
- Current mail (postmarked within 30 days)
- Recent utility bill
- Passport
Residents can use their card to checkout materials and use the library’s online databases at the library or by remote access. Guests are welcome to use all the library’s resources while visiting the library.
