Looking to sign up for a library card? Starting at our May the 4th program, you'll have the option of getting our limited edition, The Child READ card, which works at any of the Libraries in Clackamas County (LINCC). While supplies last.

If you'd like to change from your current LINCC card, please be aware that your library card number will change. Also, please let us know if you're an ebook user, as settings will need to be changed on the Libby app as well.
