About this template
A library card application is really three things at once: an identity check, a contact record, and an agreement about returning things. This form does all three in one pass, with the proof of address uploaded rather than brought in person, so a card can be issued before the borrower arrives.
The borrowing rules sit at the end as separate checkboxes rather than one blanket agreement. Ticking three specific commitments is harder to dispute later than ticking a single box next to a link nobody opened, and it costs the applicant about four seconds.
The interests checklist is optional and says so, because a library that quietly profiles its readers loses trust fast. Add a rule so the guardian block only appears for a child membership, and set the proof upload to accept images as well as PDFs.
Templates are a starting point, not legal or professional advice. Where a form carries consent, medical, or contractual wording, have somebody qualified review it against the rules that apply to you before you publish.

Frequently asked questions
- What should a library card application ask for?
- Name, date of birth, contact details, the home address, the membership type, and proof of address. Reading interests are optional and help with stock decisions.
- Can proof of address be uploaded?
- Yes. The upload field takes a photo or a PDF, so a utility bill arrives with the application rather than requiring a second visit to the desk.
- How do I handle applications for children?
- Add the guardian section and a consent checkbox, with the guardian named as the person agreeing to the borrowing rules. Keep it on the same form so nothing has to be matched up later.
