Can I apply for a Library Card Online?
No and yes. In order to apply for a traditional library card that allows you to borrow both physical items from within the Library and CLEVNET system and digital/e-media items, you need to come in to the Library in-person to fill out an application. Please bring your photo ID and proof of residence when you come.
Out of state residents require a one time $5.00 fee.
Can't come in or looking to only checkout items from the digital collection, you can sign up for a CLEVNET Digital Card.
Who can get a Digital Card? CLEVNET's Instant Digital Card is available to any one who doesn't already have an existing KFPL or CLEVNET Library Card.
I already have a KFPL Library Card, do I also need to get a Digital Card? No. Your traditional KFPL Library Card (or any CLEVNET Library Card) already gives you access to the Library's e-media, so a Virtual Card is not necessary. The Virtual Card is designed to allow those who don't have a traditional card to access the Library's digital e-media collection.
How much does a Digital Card cost? FREE!
Can I borrow physical books from the Library with my Virtual Card? No. You may only borrow items from the Library's e-media and digital collections with your Digital Card. If you wish to check-out physical materials within the library, you must visit the Kinsman Free Public Library with a valid ID and proof of current address and complete a library card application.
