Library Cards

Library Cards are free to those who live within the city limits of Sheffield Illinois. Others who do not currently live within the city limits are able to purchase a non-resident library card for $65/per year. We do honor library cards from other local libraries, so it is possible to borrow under your current hometown library card. To sign up for a library card please visit the library and we will assist you.
