Daily library overdue fees were eliminated in the FY21 Arlington County Budget. No new daily overdue fees will accrue after July 1, 2020. Overdue fees of $ .30 per day, with a maximum overdue fee of $9.00 per item, charged before July 1, 2020 remain due on library accounts. Lost material fees and other service fees still apply.

The Library has automatically extended active library cards since January 2020. Please try logging in to your account. If you still have trouble, please contact us.

• Log into your Library Account with your username and password, and your library card number is under Account Settings. 

If you do not have a username: 

• Search your email for any old emails from sender “notices@library-arlingtonva.us.” These emails will show your card number.

Please apply for a library card online. Once you have successfully completed the online application process, you will be given a Library Card Number. Please make sure to write the number down for your records. 

For safety reasons, we quarantine returned material for at least 72 hours. This means returned items can stay on your account for more than 4 days before we check them in. If returned items stay on your account for more than a week, please contact us. If over 5 days have passed since you returned your library items, and they remain on your account, please use this form to tell us which items you returned, and we’ll update your account.
