Membership
A library card is available free of charge to those who reside in St. Catharines, or pay St. Catharines property or business tax. You can obtain a card at any library branch. You will need to show two pieces of identification, one of which must include a current address. A library card is available for non-residents for an annual fee of $33.00. Non-residents who own a St. Catharines property or business can apply for a free membership by presenting a tax receipt for a St. Catharines property or business.
Lost or stolen cards must be reported to the Library immediately. The replacement fee for a lost card is $4.00 for an adult card and $2.00 for a child's card.
