| Getting a Library Card Library cards are free to Pocatello city residents and residents outside the city limits once they obtain a card from their home library. Photo identification and verification of current Pocatello residency is required. Cards are issued and can be used immediately. Patrons under 18 years of age must have a parent/legal guardian present to sign for their card. |
| Lost Cards If your library card is lost or stolen, contact the library immediately. You are responsible for all materials checked out on your library card, so treat it as you would a credit card. A replacement card is $1.00. |
| Book drops There are two book drops for patrons to use when the library is closed. One is a drive-up book drop on the north side (Center St.) of the library and the other book drop is inside the front doors (Garfield St.). If one book drop is full, please use the other. DO NOT leave items on top of the outside book drop. |
| Overdue fines The fines for all overdue materials is $.10 per day/per item. Fines for overdue interlibrary loan materials are $.25 per day/per item. |
