Library Card

Our goal is for every resident of Guadalupe County to have a library card. If you live or own property within Guadalupe County, you are eligible for a free library card. Library cards expire every year.

The library offers regular library cards and e-cards for residents of Guadalupe County. Non-Residents may apply for a regular card. The fee for non-residents is $25.00 per year. Non-Residents may also apply for a regular card by bringing a current TexShare card from their home library.
