Circulation and Reserves Services
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 to check out materials.
- Lost or stolen cards may be replaced with 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 that item. 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 a printout of the item they want on hold/recall, and their library card to the Circulation Desk. When the item is returned the patron will be notified.
