Important Information Needed

Along with the rest of the Illinois Heartland Library System (IHLS) libraries, we will soon be requiring patrons to provide extra information for their records.  This is to protect you and help us with the integrity of our patron records, since IHLS now serves a population of over 2 million!    BEGINNING SEPTEMBER 1, 2014, ALL PATRON RECORDS MUST INCLUDE THE PATRON’S BIRTH DATE AND AN ID NUMBER, PREFERABLY A DRIVER’S LICENSE NUMBER.  In the case of children, we can use a parent’s ID or license number.  The next time you come in to the library, please bring your driver’s license and we can simply scan it in to your record.  That’s all there is to it.  Remember that on and after September 1, if you want to check out items, download eBooks, search or request items, you MUST have an ID number and birth date in your record.  We thank you for taking care of this as soon as possible.
