Kids only library card

Visit your local library and get your child their very own kids only library card

Kids only library card
Common Bookeater Python designed by Philip Bunting

Libraries have created three fun and collectable kids cards in partnership with some of Australia’s best loved illustrators. A library card is a child’s first piece of official identification. It gives them access to thousands of resources to explore, learn, dream and imagine.

Benefits of a library card:

  • Gives your child a sense of belonging – the library is their space and with the card, they become part of the club!
  • Teaches responsibility.
  • Provides a fun card to store in their purse or wallet.
  • Best of all, it is free!

Anyone can join and enjoy our libraries. Membership is free and no ID is required to join. To become a member, speak to staff at your local library.
