Library Membership

Any Newbury or Bradford resident or property owner is welcome to sign up for a library card – proof of residency is required, as well as filling out a short form. Children who are not from Newbury or Bradford, but are part of the Kearsarge school district, and anyone employed in Newbury may also apply for a card and borrow materials.

For non-residents and summer renters, we offer a two-month membership for $10 or a year membership for $30.

Library Collection 

Our collection consists of adult, young adult, juvenile and children’s books, including fiction/non-fiction, large print, and audio books. We also lend DVDs, CD players, museum passes, craft kits, microscopes, games and more. Click here for our digital offerings.

All materials circulate for a three-week period. If you need more time and the item is not on hold for another patron, call the library for a renewal.

We have a limit of 5 DVDs you can check out at one time, as this is a popular collection.

Fines & Fees

The library does not have overdue fines or fees. If a book is lost or is significantly damaged, the library will require a suitable replacement or money to cover the cost of the item. The library will do their best to find the cheapest replacement for the item. The library accepts cash or check for lost items.
