September is Library Card Sign-up Month!

September is Library Card Sign-up Month, and the Santa Fe Public Library has joined with the American Library Association and public libraries nationwide to make sure that our students have the most important school supply of all – a free library card. Library Card Sign-up Month emphasizes the importance and benefits of having a library card for everybody, young and old, or not-so-old, alike.

Getting a library card is as important as buying a new backpack or a box of crayons at the start of the school year because it gives students access to books, DVDs, databases, and much more that can help them with their homework.

Databases at the Santa Fe Public Library that are helpful to young students include: Mango Languages, where you can learn up to 36 languages; Encyclopedia Britannica Reference Center; New Mexico Newspapers; Literature Resource Center; Opposing Viewpoints and Muzzy –8 language courses for children, and much more.

Your library card will also let you access our e-books, downloadable audio books, graphic novels, and more.

How can I get a Library Card?

Please fill it out and bring to any library branch with picture ID and proof of mailing address to get a card. For locations and phone numbers of the libraries, go to http://www.santafelibrary.org/locations.html.

To register for a library card you must live, work, or go to school in the City of Santa Fe or Santa Fe County. Fill out an application at the Circulation desk at any location and show a picture ID and proof of mailing address. Children under the age of 13 need a parent's or guardian's signature to get a card. A person with a library card issued by any other public library in New Mexico is eligible to receive a Santa Fe Public Library card. For more information contact the Library at 955-6785.

You can also print out a Library Card Application form from the list below. 

These resources are a key part of the services of the Santa Fe Public Library. The Library is funded by the City of Santa Fe.
