We offer a variety of membership options:
Residents of Old Orchard Beach, any child enrolled in the school system and any teacher teaching in the Old Orchard Beach school system are eligible for a free membership. When coming in to get a library card please bring a photo id and proof of residency (i.e.: phone bill, electric bill, or some other form of legal proof of residency). If your driver's license has your Old Orchard Beach address on it that's all that's needed.
