This past summer I was asked a question regarding using a library card to get a lost/stolen driver's license replaced. I quickly responded, "Let me see if that is still an option." I quickly confirmed my suspicion that no, a library card cannot serve at that governmental level.

June, 2019 Illinois Secretary of State's Office posted an updated document, which demonstrates a library card cannot be used to obtain a State ID or Driver's License.

Librarians and Library Staff members do our best to serve those visiting the library. However, there are some policies and procedures we cannot overlook or bend. Please be respectful and understanding when we try our best to help you, but cannot always give you what you want or demand. It's nothing personal.

Thank you for helping us help you!
