Educator Cards

Educator cards are issued to certified public, private and parochial school teachers, administrators and preschool daycare instructors who live or work in the Jefferson Local School District. With this card, a teacher may borrow materials for classroom use without using a personal card. A patron must have a personal card before they can apply for an educator card.

The card may be used for up to 50 books and 20 audio books.

Educators will not be charged for one lost or damaged item per school year.

DVDs are not allowed to be checked out on an Educator Card. The Director may make exceptions.
