To get a library card, Hellertown Borough residents need to come into the library with a Driver's License or form of identification with your current address. There will be a small agreement form to fill out.

If you are an ACCESS patron (your home library is anywhere else in PA - Mary Meuser, BAPL, etc.) you must bring a form of identification AND have an active card at your home library. Make sure your home library card is not expired. There will be a small agreement form to fill out.

If you are a Lower Saucon Township or Freemansburg resident, you must bring a form of identification AND pay a fee. There will be a small agreement form to fill out.

To renew an expired library card, you will need to come into the library with a Driver's License or form of identification with your current address. The library staff will double check the information on your account, update anything, and then change your expiration date to one year from the renewal date. 

To renew a book, you can ask in-person at the circulation desk, call the library (610-838-8381), or use our online catalog to log into your account and renew from there. 

Hellertown residents are able to participate in the Inter Library Loan Program - meaning that we can place a hold on a material at the Bethlehem Area Public Library or one of its partners. ILLs are delivered to the Hellertown Area Library for you to pick up.

We also have a wealth of online resources with books, movies, and more! Check the "Catalogs and Materials" and "Online Resources" tabs on our website. 

If you have a suggestion for our collection, let us know and we will add it to our wish list. We are always interested in what you want to see at the library!
