Getting a Library Card

Residents of the Village of Orland Park may pre-register for a free Orland Park Public Library card online and place holds on materials.

Fees are determined by the tax bill method, where the library’s current tax rate is multiplied times the equalized assessed valuation appearing on the applicant’s most recent tax bill.

Non-residents have the option of choosing a 6 month, 9 month or 1 year library card. Fees will be calculated as described above applying a 50%, 75%, or full cost payment accordingly.

Non-residents are eligible to apply and pay for a non-resident card if they reside within one of Orland Park’s school districts. See Illinois’s non-resident library card code.

Check the library’s Circulation Policy (PDF) and Reciprocal Borrowers FAQ Page for more information.

Corporate library cards are available for businesses with property located within the Village of Orland Park. Check the Library Cards for Businesses page for more details.

Most materials may be renewed once. Feature Videos and DVDs, Leapfrog Games, and the Lucky Day Collection cannot be renewed. You can also renew online by catalog if the materials are not overdue for more than two weeks or on hold for another patron.

Materials may be reserved by Orland Park Public Library cardholders in-person or by phone. You will be contacted by phone or email when the item is ready for pick-up at the Express Reserve Shelf in the lobby or Circulation Desk.

Orland Park Public Library books and materials are loaned to holders of valid library cards.

Note: Effective January 24, 2022, Interlibrary Loan items will be limited to 5 items checked out at one time and 5 hold requests. If a patron orders an Interlibrary Loan from out of state, and it is not picked up once it becomes available, that patron will be charged a $5.00 service fee.
