Frequently Asked Question

How do I get an Everman Library Card?

If you live within a two mile radius of the city limits of Everman (including Forest Hill), if you work for the City of Everman, or are employed by Everman ISD or attend Everman ISD, you are eligible for a library card! Just bring any form of identification, water bill, or something with your current name and address!

How do I get a book not currently on the shelves?

If you have an Everman Public Library Card in good standing, owe NO fines or have overdue items, we can order books for you through INTERLIBRARY LOAN. You pay only the postage!

Also, there's a new program called LOAN STAR TEX SHARE. If you are in good standing with us, your parent library, we will give you a TEX SHARE CARD, which will allow you to borrow books from ANY library in the state of Texas that belongs to the Tex Share Program. Yeeeeeee ha!
