Library Cards

Eligibility

As a member of the Bridges Library System and the CAFE automated consortium the Brookfield Public Library will serve all residents of our library system, and such other library system with which our library system has borrowing agreements.  Borrowing privileges are not offered to individuals who reside in Milwaukee County because of the exemption for that county that is provided for in the State Statutes.

To meet the needs of individuals who work in, or attend school in, the library system service area, the Brookfield Library may provide special borrowing privileges.

To register for a library card, an individual must complete an application form, provide their signature and show a form of valid identification listing their name and current address. Parents or legal guardians are required to sign for juvenile borrowers up to the age of 14 years. Library regulations will be distributed with the card. Failure to observe those regulations shall be cause for revoking library privileges. A library card is needed to check out materials, and for use of certain in-house services.
