Joining the Library
Settle Community Library is part of the North Yorkshire Library Service and to become a member of the library you simply have to join North Yorkshire Libraries. You will be able to borrow and return items at any library in North Yorkshire. You can use the North Yorkshire online catalogue to find the items you want to borrow and to manage your account.
Join in Person
You can visit a library to join in person. It’s free, and you don’t need any ID or to fill in a form. Children of any age can join and do not need parental permission or a parent present.
Join Online
If you are unable to visit a library, you can join Settle library easily by filling in our online form. Join the library online
After registering, you will be sent an email confirming your membership, though you will still have to visit us to collect your card and set your PIN so you can access your account online.
Your Library card
Your Library Card
When you become a member you will be given two library cards – one credit card-sized and a smaller one that can go on a keyring.
Keep your cards safe.
Lost your card?
If you lose your card, the first replacement is free but after that there is a £1.50 charge for a replacement. You will need to visit your local library to request a new PIN. For security reasons, we are unable to give out PINs over the telephone or via email.
Access your Library account
Access your library account via the North Yorkshire County Council library catalogue to manage your library account, including searching for, reserving and renewing books.
If your details change
Should any of your personal details change – for example, your address within North Yorkshire, phone number, email address – please tell us your new details as soon as possible.
If you move out of North Yorkshire, let us know and return your card to your nearest library, along with any items you may have borrowed.
