Frequently Asked Questions (Because We Know You Have Them):
- How long does it take to get a library card? In person, you walk out with your card that same day! Online applications might take a business day or two.

Nope! As long as you have a mailing address, you can get a library card (residents get it for free, non-residents pay a small fee). - What kind of ID do I need?
A driver's license, state ID, or even a school ID (if you're under 18) will do the trick. - I lost my library card! What do I do?
No worries! Just contact your local library branch and they can help you get a replacement. - Can my pet get a library card?
While your furry friend might love napping in a quiet corner, library cards are for humans only (for now!).
So what are you waiting for? Get out there and snag your library card! With a world of knowledge and entertainment at your fingertips, the only limit is your imagination (and maybe the library's closing time). Happy reading, Nashville!
