Getting a Child a Library Card
You can sign your child up for a regular library card OR you can sign them up for My First Library Card. My First Library Card is for kids from birth through age six. Why would you want a My First Library Card? Because you can borrow children's books and never get charged an overdue fine! Nice, huh? Find a children's book after 3 months wedged between the toy box and the wall? Not a problem!
