Library Cards are free to anyone who lives in Maricopa County.

User Eligibility

Obtaining a library card is required to utilize library services. All patrons wishing to obtain a Peoria Public Library card must provide identification (picture identification and proof of current address). It is necessary to have current address and telephone number on file for each library cardholder so we may contact them when necessary. This also ensures patron confidentiality and expedites service.

Types of identification that are acceptable:

Drivers license or picture ID and any one of the following: personal checks, postdated current mail or voter registration card, etc.

Patrons who cannot provide two forms of identification (one photo and one with current address) at the time of application will not be able to receive a library card.

Any child under the age of 18 MUST have a parent or guardian present to obtain a card. A parent or guardian must provide appropriate ID. There is no age restriction on who may receive a library card. Parents are responsible to monitor library materials their children utilize and check out.

The patron must be present when the card is issued. Replacement of lost library card is $2.00. Cards may be used at the Main Library or the Sunrise Mountain Library.

Library Card Application

Things to remember:

If you allow someone to use your library card, YOU are responsible for any fines that accrue for misuse of your card. That includes fees for replacing lost materials as well as overdue fines.

When you move, don't forget to include the library on your list of places to notify of your new address.

Lost Library Cards:

Report the loss or theft of your library card immediately. The last thing you want to do is pay for materials someone else has charged to your card. You can call the Main Library (623-773-7555) or Sunrise Mountain Library (623)487-5150 to report your library card lost or stolen
