with valid photo identification. You can read our complete

Children 6-18 years of age who want to apply for a library card must
have their parent or guardian come into the library with them, present
photo identification, and sign the agreement.
Inter-Library Loan
If we do not have an item in our collection that you
want, we can get it for you through inter-library loan. Inter-library loans are usually
available within three to five days. Please come into the library or
complete this online form to request an
inter-library loan.
Public Computers
Penn Area Library has several computers available to the
public for word processing and reference. Time
permitting, the library staff will try to help with computer basics. Regrettably,
the staff is not able to offer extensive explanations or
provide in-depth training. Please use the help button or ask for a
reference book or program manual. Click here to read our complete
Guidelines for Computer Usage
and Internet Policy.
The Penn Area Library does not provide e-mail accounts
to users. However, users with existing accounts may access their

Children under the age of 12 years must be accompanied
and under the direct supervision of a parent or caregiver when using the

a parent or caregiver signature on their Penn Area Library Internet Use Agreement on file in
the library.
The Penn Area Library recently acquired a genealogy CD
