How do I get a Baltimore County Public Library card?
To apply for a Baltimore County Public library card, visit the Circulation or Information Desk at any Baltimore County Public Library branch or any Mobile Library Services bookmobile stop and bring your valid identification showing your current mailing address. If you are 17 years of age or under and do not have valid identification, a parent/guardian must be present to show a valid photo ID and sign a registration form to allow you to get a permanent library card.
