Who Can Join the Library?
Anyone who lives, works or studies in North Lanarkshire can join the library. South Lanarkshire residents are also able to join. You can join at any age and membership is free. You need to bring proof of your name and address with you when you join.
If you are under 16 you will need a parent or guardian to sign your application form and library card. Only the guarantor need bring ID.
Two separate forms of ID are required, one showing your address and one showing your signature. Examples of suitable ID include driving licence, recent bank statements, benefit or allowance books, passport, cheque card or other store card, credit or bank card.
Certain items are not suitable e.g. utility bills, supermarket cards and personal letters. If you cannot provide the types of ID required or are unsure if you have suitable examples please ask a member of staff for further information.
People who only work or study in the area must have their application form stamped by their employer or educational establishment.
