How to Get a Swampscott Library Card

Any adult resident of any city or town in Massachusetts may obtain a Swampscott Public Library Card. Simply bring in identification with your current address, such as a piece of U.S. mail or a valid driver’s license, fill out a short form at the Main Desk, or the online form below, and you will be issued a free library card. If you already have a library card issued by any NOBLE library, you may use that card at the Swampscott Library without registering for another card.

Children who can write their own names can obtain a library card with a parent or guardian’s signature of authorization. Young Adults age 13 and above may obtain a library card without an adult’s authorization with proof of current residency such as a piece of U.S. mail.

If your library card becomes misplaced, stop by the library or call us to report it missing. A staff member will issue you a new card and deactivate your lost card.

We would like to stress that you bring your card with you when you visit the library or call us on the phone. Having your card helps us keep your transaction quick, private, and secure. This is not only our policy but the policy of our library network NOBLE, the North of Boston Library Exchange.
