Library Cards:

Turner Public Library patron cards are offered free of charge to Turner residents. We ask that parents help us determine the age at which your child is ready for their own card, however for children under the age of 14, we require an adult signature.

If you live in Leeds or Greene, and have a child enrolled in MSAD 52, you may obtain a TPL patron card free of charge for your child.

Non-residents of Turner may obtain a TPL patron card for a $10.00 annual fee.

Please come into the library in person to register for your patron card. Acceptable proof of residency for Turner residents includes:

Driver's License with current address
Current utility bill
Lease or property tax information

If you applying for a patron card based on MSAD 52 enrollment, please bring a current grade-level report card, progress notice, or teacher assignment letter.

Cards expire one year from date of issuance, but we are always happy to renew cards when you visit us in person, request by telephone, or send us an email at info@turnerpubliclibrary.org.

Should you forget to bring your library card with you, you may still borrow library materials. We may ask to confirm your identity for your security, as well as the library's.
