The Bristol Public Library provided me with the forms for the students to complete. I send the completed form to the library where it is processed and they send me the student's library card.

I tried to have my public library come in as well, but the issue, for them, was that parents needed to sign the application if students were not yet 18.  It was a major headache.  We scanned the public library application and had teachers of freshmen post on Google classroom, asking students to have parents sign and then return to us.  It was like pulling teeth.  I would try one of the other options listed here!  -Barb

I incorporated getting a library card into my lesson on researchit CT. My 6 th grade students received 5 points extra credit for bringing in their library card.

As an independent school we have students from many towns in the area and even international students. In order to access the ResearchIT CT databases students need the barcode from the back of a public library card if they are off campus. Many of my students don’t have library cards and although I tell them to get one, I’m not sure how many actually listen to me.

 

When I worked in a public school we would invite the public librarians to school to sign students up for cards. I can’t really do that here as it would be impractical since there are so many towns. Do any of you have this issue? If so, how did you address it? Or could someone from the State Library weigh in, please?
