Becoming a member

Membership of the library service is free to all residents of the Shire. You can join at any branch of the library by presenting proof of your name and current address. There is no minimum age for joining, but those under the age of 18 years require a signature from their parent or guardian.

Joining online

You may join the library online by clicking on the button below after you have read and accepted the membership conditions. An online membership gives you immediate access to all of our eResources.

  • Items may be renewed twice. Staff are happy to renew items over the telephone during opening hours, please have your library card number on hand, or you can renew your items online. If a reservation has been placed on an item you have on loan a renewal is not permitted.
