New Patrons
Residents of Smith Township in Whitley County, or Green Township in Noble County, may obtain a library card from the Churubusco Public Library at no cost. All new patrons must provide proof of address in the form of a driver's license, car registration, utility bill, or personal check. Noble County residents must also show a valid Noble County Library card. Children may get a card with the permission of their parents/guardians who have a valid card at the Churubusco Public Library.

Individuals who live outside of our service area may also obtain a library card by purchasing a membership for $25 annually, or by purchasing a PLAC (Public Library Access Card) from their home library. Students who live outside of our service area, but who attend school at Smith-Green Community Schools, may obtain a library card. Parents must give permission and show proof of attendance as well as proof of address.

Resident cards are good for three years; memberships are good for one year. All first cards and renewal cards are free. The fee for replacing lost or destroyed cards is $1 per card.
