	West Vancouver Memorial Library Cards - Eligibility for West Vancouver Residents

	A library card is free to all residents of West Vancouver. Photo ID and proof of current address is required to register. Children under 14 require their parent's signature.

	Residents of other areas in the Lower Mainland and Surrounding Area

	Library cards are also free to all residents of Bowen Island, Burnaby, Coquitlam, Fraser Valley, Gibsons, New Westminster, North Vancouver City, North Vancouver District, Pemberton, Port Moody, Richmond, Sechelt, Squamish, Surrey, Vancouver and Whistler. These libraries comprise "InterLINK". If you live within the InterLINK system, you can register for a library card at any InterLINK Library by presenting appropriate identification (usually photo ID with current address). You may register using your West Vancouver card or obtain a separate card from that library. If you live in the GVRD but are not served by InterLINK (e.g, Lions Bay), annual membership fees are $50.00 for adults; $25.00 for students.

To prevent unauthorized use of your library card, please report its loss immediately; you are responsible for all material borrowed on your card. The charge for replacing a lost card is $3.00.

	Internet Access Card

	If you would like to use our Internet Stations but are not eligible for a West Vancouver Memorial Library card, you can obtain an Internet Access card at the Registration Desk. The Internet Access card allows the holder to use the Library's public Internet stations; it does not include borrowing or remote database privileges. To register, one piece of personal ID should be shown (address ID is not essential.) The card expires one year after the date of registration. A parent's signature on the application is required for anyone under 14 years of age. Internet Access cards from other libraries can also be registered here. There is no charge for Internet Access cards.
