New Library Cards at the Oak Lawn Public Library
September is National Library Card Sign-Up Month

In honor of September’s National Library Card Sign-Up Month, the Oak Lawn Public Library, 9427 S. Raymond Avenue, will unveil its new Library card designs for kids, teens and adults, starting Tuesday, Sept. 1. The cards will reflect the Library’s new visual brand, including the refreshed logo and vibrant color scheme. Kids’ cards will feature the drawings of artist Kevin Luthardt, who painted the “Imagination” mural in the Youth Services Department.
All Oak Lawn residents are eligible for a free Library card and online catalog account. Residents under the age of 16 must have a legal guardian present to obtain or renew a card. Cards are also available for businesses with an Oak Lawn address.
Apply in person at the first floor Customer Services Desk and present a driver’s license, state identification or other government-issued card with a photo and your current address.
