The King Memorial Library respects the privacy of all patron records. The library will disclose information regarding overdue materials and fees for children 12 and under to the parent or legal guardian who originally authorized and signed for the child to receive a card. The parent or legal guardian must have either a proper identification or the child’s library card at the time of the request. If your child is age 13 or older, the library cannot disclose information without his or her authorization.

Information regarding titles on an adult library card holder’s account will only be provided to the account holder.
