patrons

WELCOME!

Not a current Fairfax Community Library patron?

Sign up at the Library!

All patrons need to bring photo ID, such as a license, and a piece of mail with your physical address. If your mailing address differs, the Library will need to know at the time of creating an account.

​Community
Accounts for residents of Fairfax are paid for through annual taxes.
Picture
BFA-Fairfax Students
Starting in Pre-K, students at BFA-Fairfax have accounts for the duration of their enrollment in the school. Upon enrolling in a different elementary, middle, or high school, or graduating, former students need to create a new account corresponding to their town of residence.

Non-Residents
Accounts are $20 per year for patrons who live outside Fairfax.

Exception: If you are 65 years or older, the Library waives the non-resident fee.

Homecard
If you live in a town whose library participates in the Homecard Library System and have a corresponding library account in good standing, you may create a free Homecard account here at the Fairfax Community Library with your your home town library card.

My Library Card Expires?
The expiration date is how we check-in with patrons to make sure we have up-to-date contact information.
  • If you are a community patron, your account is good for 3 years.
  • If you are a non-resident patron, your account is good for 1 year.
  • If you are a Homecard patron, your account's expiration date is set by your home library. Homecard patrons need to renew your library account with your home library.​

code of conduct

The Library follows a Code of Conduct to ensure all patrons have a safe, enjoyable experience.

Patrons will show mutual respect for everyone and everything in the Library.

Behavior which interferes with the Library's mission or is hazardous to self or others is unacceptable, and patrons not complying with the Library's Code of Conduct will be asked to leave.
