Southwest Neighborhood Library | Kenosha Public Library
Are you a teacher in Kenosha gearing up to teach a lesson you know will be very popular with your students? We have resources you can check out to boost what is available in your classroom, and you can check them out using a special Teacher Card.
Teacher cards were created to give Kenosha County educators maximum access to library resources and the greatest possible flexibility in utilizing those resources for lesson planning.
Not only are Teacher Cards a way for teachers to boost the resources available in their classrooms, they have an unlimited number of checkouts and an extended checkout window of six weeks instead of the standard three. Items can be renewed for an additional six weeks as long as no patron holds exist on the item. Up to 200 holds can be placed on a Teacher Card but are restricted to Kenosha Public Library items only.
The best part of a Teacher Card is that they do not accumulate fines.*
*Please note any items that are damaged or lost will be billed for replacement, and teachers are personally responsible for items checked out on their Teacher Card.
FAQs
Who is eligible for a Teacher Card?
Teachers who teach preschool or grades K-12 in the city or county of Kenosha.
I'm eligible. How do I get one?
Signing up is a similar process to a regular library card. In addition to a photo ID, a letter from the school administration on school letterhead must be provided when signing up at one of our branches.
I have a personal card already. Can I still get a Teacher Card?
Yes. If you are a Kenosha, Racine, Rock, or Walworth County resident, you can have both a Teacher Card and a Personal Card, so there is no need to worry about confusing your own checkouts with those you are using in the classroom.
