You must register with a librarian for a library card. You will need some form of ID to present at the circulation desk to receive a library card. For example, the librarian may ask to see your driver's license, a bill with your current address, or a student ID before a card can be issued. Cards are issued for immediate use and may be used the same day they are issued. Those patrons that are 18 and under will need to have a parent or legal guardian complete a permission slip before a card can be issued. Please notify the library if you card is lost or stolen so that we can prevent others from using your card.

I want to place a hold on an item that is checked out or that another library in the system has. How do I do place a hold?
You can place holds at the library or while using the library's online catalog. You may also call 920-987-5110, and we will place a hold for you. To place a hold on an item you've found when using our web catalog, click on the words Hold Any Copy. A login screen will appear. Type in your library card number (on the back of your card) with no spaces and your PIN, which is the last four digits of your phone number. Click Log In. Check to see that Pine River is the pickup location. Click Place Hold. If hold is successful, click ok. If not successful try again or call the library for assistance. (If you want a specific copy --like the June issue of a magazine then you click Hold Specific Copy and choose the month to place that hold.) You will receive an email, phone call, or text when your hold arrives at the library.
Yes! It's easier and faster to renew your item through the online catalog. Simply go to Your Account. You will need to type in your Library Card Number and your PIN (the last four digits of your phone number.) Click in the empty box next to the title of the item you would like to renew. A check mark should appear. Now click the Renew Selected Items button. If your item is renewable, your item should be renewed (always double check.) If you still have a question contact the librarian at 920-987-5110.
