By Phone : Call 847-590-8706 to check for overdues, renew items, find due dates or check what you have available for pick-up. Have your library card handy!

Through "My FRVPLD" Account : This feature of BiblioCommons, our web catalog, allows you to view a list of the items you currently have checked out or put on hold. You will also be able to pay your library bills online,  cancel holds, change your password, and renew your materials (if they are renewable and there are currently no requests for the item). 

 

1. A photo ID with your current address is all that’s needed to get your library card.  If your photo ID does not have your current address, a second ID with your current address is needed.  If you have no photo ID, then 2 IDs with current address on each will be acceptable.  To obtain a card for a person not yet 15, the minor and his/her parent or legal guardian must be present.  ID in the parent’s name will suffice. Possible IDs include driver’s license, state ID,
motor vehicle registration or renewal, checkbook,  current real estate tax or utility bill, credit card bill or a piece of mail addressed to the patron and not postmarked more
than 30 days previous to the request for a new card.

2. Library cards will be issued upon request and proof of current address up to 15 minutes before closing.

3. Please keep your library card with you to check out materials or use the computers. You can check your account via the Internet by going to "My FRVPLD" through BiblioCommons, our web catalog. Type in your full library card number, skip the space, and enter the default password if you have not yet changed your password. If you need assistance, please contact the Adult Reference/Information Desk at 847-428-3661, choose option 1.
