Seniors, Book Club Members, & Avid Readers: Info on the Boise Public Library

February 29, 2020 By Ola Lib Staff

The Ola District Library is full of books, DVDs, and fun & educational activities for both the young & the old. However, you may want to join the Boise Public Library or one of its partners in Meridian or Nampa, to access additional materials. 

Non-Resident Card for Boise Public Library:

Non-resident senior citizens over the age of 62 may purchase a Non­-Resident Card for an annual fee of $17.33; if you are a non-resident under the age of 62, the annual fee is $69.30.

The Non-Resident Card has the same privileges as a Borrower’s Card and the annual payment of the non­-resident fee by one individual in a household allows all other persons in that household to obtain a Non-Resident Card without the payment of an additional fee.

All books, including the new & popular ones, can be checked out for 4 weeks. Most books and materials can be renewed, and fees are no longer collected for overdue books.

Book Club Sets available at Boise Public Library:

https://www.boisepubliclibrary.org/books-movies-and-music/books-for-book-clubs/

The library has 45 Book Club sets; each set contains 10 copies and can be checked out for six weeks. Sets must be checked out and returned as sets.

If you want to see a list of all the sets, click on this link: https://www.boisepubliclibrary.org/info/search/ and then insert “book club sets” (without the parentheses) in the top search box labeled “i.e Author, Title, Keyword, etc.” If you find a set that you’d like to check out, click “place hold” and choose your pick-up location.
