How To Apply For A Library Card Residents of Ridgway Township, Ridgway Borough, Spring Creek Township, and Horton Township are eligible for a free library card through the Ridgway Public Library.

Bring your PA driver's license or your most recent utility bill to the library to confirm your address and identity. Our library staff will create a library account for you once we are able to verify your identity and address. We can also help you get started with downloading ebooks through OverDrive. Ask us if you'd like a tour, or how to locate an item.
Library Membership Notice For your Library membership and account to remain active, you must check out a book at least once every three years.
If you have not physically checked out an item from the Ridgway Public Library within the last 3 years, your membership may have become inactive. If your account has become inactive, you won't be able to login to any of the Ridgway Public Library's online services such as Libby. Stop by the circulation desk to renew!
