To obtain a library card, come to the Circulation Desk with two forms of current identification that show that you live in the Village of Freeport or the Freeport School District. For example, you may bring an electric or telephone bill, drivers license, a letter addressed to you, a report card, school ID, or your school bus pass. After you complete a short application, you will receive your card. Each person in your family should have his/her own library card. With your library card, you may borrow books, magazines, audiotapes, compact discs and videotapes, and use the public access computers.
