Using Your Library Card
A library card gives you access to all of the services and materials at the Bethlehem Public Library. It allows you to borrow books, videos, audiobooks, games, magazines, passes to Connecticut museums, parks and forests and much more! With your card you can also search the library's electronic catalog. Get A Card!
Anyone can get a library card. Residents will need to present an ID with a current Bethlehem address or an ID with something that verifies your current address, such as a recently received piece of mail, checkbook or a lease. Out-of town borrowers may have their card from the town they live in entered into our system. Patrons under 14 must have a parent or legal guardian with them to sign the library card application form. Applications are available at the Library. Each eligible borrower must apply for and use his or her own library card. Please read carefully the Library Card Terms and Conditions for complete eligibility requirements and additional information. Replace a Lost or Stolen Library Card First, report your card as lost or stolen, either by phone (203-266-7510,7), to Library personnel. The cost of replacing a lost or stolen library card is $1.00 which is assessed at the time the card is reported lost.
