How Do I....?
Following are frequently asked questions that
we get at the front desk. If you are looking for information that you don't

assistance @ 563-289-4242 option 4 or email
library@leclaireiowa.gov.
Get a Library Card
If you reside or own property within in our service area (LeClaire city
limits or LeClaire residents within Scott County), you are eligible to
receive a library card free of charge, as part of your tax-supported library
service.
Your library card allows you to:
-
Borrow books from our local library, all
RiverShare
member libraries, as well as most other public libraries in Iowa.
-
Use special online collections to find
magazine articles and information you can't get just by searching the web.
-
Request materials from other RiverShare libraries
through Interlibrary Loan (a free delivery service)
To get a library card:
-
Complete a Patron Registration Slip
(available at the Circulation Desk). *Registration for patrons 18 yrs. and
under requires signature of parent/guardian.
-
Present a photo ID listing your current
address. * If your ID does NOT supply your current address, please provide
an additional form of ID verifying your current address at the time of
registration- a piece of mail, rental lease, vehicle registration, bank
statement, etc.
Renew Books
-
You may renew library materials in person, by
phone or email at
