September is Library Card Sign-up Month!!!

Charleston County Public Library is encouraging county residents to sign up for a free card - adding it to every child's school supply list and to every adult's wallet or key ring.



This nationwide campaign is held each
September to promote signing up in conjunction with the start of school. Studies have shown that children who are read to in the home and who use the library perform better in school and are more likely to use the library as a source of lifelong learning.


In an effort to reach students as they transition from one school or grade to another, Library staff visit schools with a special focus on students in kindergarten and sixth grade. In 2014, there were 256,481 library cardholders, library staff registered 791 students and 3,857 items were checked out by those students during the year.  





In Charleston County, students can get help through the Library's Ask-A-Question reference service where they can get help from a Reference Librarian by visiting a branch, calling 805-6930, use instant messaging by typing a question into the chat box on the CCPL website, e-mailing askaquestion@ccpl.org or text 66756 and begin your question with askccpl. 



The Library's website - www.ccpl.org - also offers Homework Help under Services for Children and provides free access to dozens of reliable reference databases in its Resources section, many of them available remotely simply by logging in with a Library card number.



Library cards are good for one year and can be renewed at no cost. Charleston County residents can take these steps to sign up online for a free Charleston County Public Library card:

  • Submit a completed library card registration form online; one application must be filled out for each person in the household requesting a card.
     
  • Your application will be processed, and your new library card will be mailed to the address you have provided (address must be in Charleston County to qualify for a free library card).
     
  • When you have received your new library card in the mail, bring it to any of our 16 branch locations or the bookmobile; inform the staff at the Circulation desk that you have registered for a library card online. You will have six months to activate your card. Cards not activated within six months will be deleted from out database.
     
  • Present your new card along with an ID at the Circulation desk to verify your identity; the following are examples of acceptable identification:
- a valid driver's license or DMV identification card
- employer identification or work badge
- school identification
- social services identification
- passport
- military ID
  • Upon presentation of an ID, your new library card will be immediately activated and will be valid for borrowing materials, checking your account, and renewing and reserving items at all 16 Charleston County Public Library branch locations and our bookmobile!
     
  • If you have questions, please call (843) 805-6833.
