Get a library card

If you live in the Village of Hinckley or Squaw Grove Township you are eligible for a free library card as part of your tax-supported library service. Just bring in a picture ID that includes your current address. A parent must sign the application card for children aged 5-17.

​

If you live in Pierce or Big Rock Township you may purchase a library card. The annual fee is based on your property taxes so please bring a copy of your tax bill along with your picture ID.

Update as of 5/6/25: Residents of Pierce Township may now claim a free library card thanks to a generous donation from Burr Oak Solar. Stop by with a picture ID and set up your card. You are welcome to use it at whichever library is most convenient for you, but it must be created at the Hinckley library.

​

Hinckley library cards are honored at most other libraries in Illinois!
