You can also use your card to access the public computers and the online databases. How do I get a library card: Adults and Teens: A library card is free to any citizen who lives in the East Albemarle Regional Library System (Pasquotank, Camden, Currituck and Dare). If you do not live in one of the four counties you must pay a yearly fee of $15.00 to obtain a library card. In order to get a card you must furnish identification (e.g. current North Carolina driver’s license, rent receipt, property tax receipt, utility receipt…). Children: Children, birth through age 13, may receive a library card. Children may be present to receive their cards, but their presence is not required. Their applications must be signed and completed by a parent or guardian. The parent or guardian must have a valid library card. What is a PIN and how do I get one? A PIN is a 4 digit number that provides an extra level of security when using your library card to reserve books, renew items by phone, or look up your personal information in the Catalog. The last 4 digits of your telephone number will be assigned as your PIN when you receive a library card. You can change your PIN at anytime by accessing MY ACCOUNT. What should I do if I lose my card? You should report the lost card at once to your Library. You are responsible for materials taken out with the card until it is reported lost or stolen. Is there a charge for a replacement card? The cost for a replacement card is $1.00.
