The board of each public library in RAILS is required by Illinois law to decide annually whether your library will participate in the state's nonresident fee program, and to inform us about the board's action within 30 days. Nothing in the statute or administrative rules requires a public library to participate in the nonresident library card reciprocal borrowing program of a regional library system.
Library directors and other designated staff can fulfill this requirement by updating your nonresident card participation and fee information in the Library Directory & Learning Calendar (L2) directory. Once logged into L2, search and select your library in the directory. Click on the purple hyperlink above your library's name, select the "edit" tab, and scroll down to the expandable non-resident section. After you have made your changes, scroll down and select "save."
You do not need to send us a copy of your nonresident card resolution or ordinance.
For more information about the Illinois public library nonresident services program, including answers to frequently asked questions, see the Illinois State Library's website.
