1. How do I get a Library card?

Come to the Library and present a current picture ID and proof of current residence, like a valid driver's license. If you live in Taylor city limits, there is no charge for a card. If you live outside of Taylor, there is a $10 per year charge. For more questions about proof of residence or ID, call the Library at 512-352-3434.
