Library Card Information & Services
Library Cards : Please present a valid Driver's License or another government-issued photo ID with a local or county address when opening your account. If your photo ID doesn't have your current address, please also present a utility bill with your name and new address on it. Northwest ISD students and faculty will also need to present their school ID.
Lost cards: A fee of $3.00 will be charged when replacing lost cards.
Checkout: All material is checked out for 2 weeks. Renew online from the online catalog tab linked above or call the library for assistance (817-636-2767). (NOTE: ILL items and items on hold for other patrons may not be renewable.)
Returns: Items may be returned inside the library during our regular business hours or 24/7/365 in the drive-up book return located outside the library on Elm Street. NOTE: STEM kits and Yoto Players may not be returned in the drive-up book return. Those must be returned inside the library. STEM kits and Yoto players returned in the drive-up book return that are damaged will result in your account being charged for replacement.
Overdue Items: Overdue items are assessed fines at the rate of 15¢ per item per day, or $1.00 per item per day for videos and Yoto players. There is a 24-hour grace period past the due date before fines begin accumulating. Fines are not charged for days the library is closed (weekends and certain holidays).
Lost or Damaged Items: Your account will be charged for the cost of the item.
