[OPLINLIST] New Patron Registration Question

[Justin Crawfis]

Dear OPLIN List Members:

 

For the last several years, our library has required that adult patrons
furnish proof of current address when they sign up for library cards.
(Driver's licenses, mail, checkbook registers, rental agreements, paycheck
stubs, etc., are just a few of the types of documentation that we accept as
"proof of current address.") Most patrons are okay with it, but there are a
few who seem quite miffed when informed of this requirement.

 

Do any other libraries require this? Would this be considered a standard
procedure for new patron registrations? Thanks in advance for your input!

 

Sincerely,

 

Justin Crawfis
