How do I get a library card?

  • Visit the library to apply for a library card.
    All permanent residents of member cities and unincorporated areas of Pinellas County may register for a free PPLC card, which is valid for three years from date of registration. A permanent resident is anyone who either owns property in Pinellas County, or lives in Pinellas County for more than six months each year.
  • Pinellas County residents who live in non-member cities must pay an annual fee of $100.00 per household for a PPLC card, which is valid for one year from date of registration. Most non-member cities offer reimbursement.
  • View the full policy on the Library About Page .
  • I’ve lost my library card, how do I replace it?

  • If you have lost your library card, please visit us to get a replacement. You will need to show ID and pay a $1 lost card fee.
  • My library card is expired, what do I do?

  • Full-access PPLC cards expire every three years. In order to renew an expired library card, please visit any PPLC library and confirm that your information is still up to date.
