Your Springfield-Greene County Library card gives you access to all the resources and services of the Springfield-Greene County Library. In addition to borrowing materials, your card will let you use a library computer, download digital media and search electronic databases.


Library Cards are issued free of charge to residents of Greene County, Missouri, persons who pay property tax in Greene County, or students residing in university housing. See the Library's Circulation Policy.

If an applicant has had a previous card in our system, any outstanding issues with that card, including fines or fees, may need to be resolved.


Library cards expire automatically one year from the date of issue. You may update your account online, or call or visit any branch library.
