Your records are strictly confidential. At the Boulder Public Library, we go the extra step to ensure that your records remain your business and no one else's.

If you forget your library card, you can check out and retrieve account information with a photo ID. This process helps us recognize you and avoids checkout discrepancies.

Your hold items will check out only to your card. If you want a friend or family member to pick up your hold items, be sure to give him or her your card.

We give your hold/reserve information only to you. Specific details on your hold items will not be given to your answering machine, roommate, or anyone else. You may contact your branch library or check My Downloadable Book Account to get the title.

Children's records are equally protected. We ask parents to use their child's library card when checking out, renewing or paying fines on items for their child.

Your records are available to you. Although your library account is protected from others, you can access information online using My Downloadable Book Account

The Boulder Public Library follows Colorado Law 24-90-119 which requires all public libraries to guarantee the privacy of customer records. If you have any questions concerning the privacy of your records, please let us know.
