Library Card
- Any resident of the state of Indiana with a valid Indiana driver's license or proof of residency may be issued a borrower's card.
- Indiana University Kokomo students are issued a Student ID that must be activated to serve as a library card.
- You must present your Indiana University borrower's card in order to check out materials.
- Lost or stolen cards may be replaced for a $5 fee.
Borrower's Responsibilities
Materials checked out on your card are your responsibility. You are responsible for being aware of the policies (due date, fines, and fees for late materials) associated with checking out any items. Non-return of materials is a Class C infraction of Indiana Public Law No. 206.
Holds/Recalls
Items that are checked out may have either a hold or recall placed on them. Patrons need to present to the Circulation/Reserves Service Desk a printout of the item they want on hold/recall, as well as their library card. When the item is returned, the patron will be notified.
