Getting and Using My Library Card
Renew Your Card
Adult accounts expire every three years. You can renew your account in person, at any Chester County Library System member library, by presenting ID that verifies your current address. You can also renew your account using the Chester County Library System mobile app. Two forms of ID that verify current address are required when using the mobile app to renew an expired card.
Minor accounts expire when the cardholder reaches 18 years of age. When a minor’s account expires they must re-apply as an adult cardholder either in person, online or using the mobile app.
Not sure when your card will expire? Check your account expiration date online at My Account or contact the Circulation Desk, [email protected] or 610-344-4795.
Apply Using Mobile App
Adults can submit an application using the Chester County Library System mobile app. Two forms of valid ID that verify current address are required when using the mobile app to apply for a library card. The app is available to download in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
Apply In Person
Download, print and bring your completed application to any Chester County Library with valid ID (i.e., driver’s license) to verify your current address (required).
