A decision to reduce library hours of operation is made with the safety of library employees and the public in mind.

The Library receives most of its operational funding from Mecklenburg County (approximately 90%). Other funding sources, such as the State of North Carolina, the City of Charlotte, and the Mecklenburg ABC Board, make up a small portion of the Library’s operational funding.

Charlotte Mecklenburg Library complies with NC public records law, and has established the following guidelines to affirm the public’s right to access Library records while setting forth a standardized procedure for Library staff when providing information to the public.

The Charlotte Mecklenburg Library's brand features a vibrant and exciting look that celebrates the world of possibilities every member of our community discovers when they use the public library. It’s a look we hope inspires each of us to think “I can” when we think of our Library.

Thanks for letting us know that you already have a library card. 

Thanks for your interest in a physical card.  To receive a card, visit your nearest library branch with a photo ID and proof of Mecklenburg County residency. A physical card will be issued at this time. 

We are excited to help you get a library card. If you are a student enrolled with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools you automatically have a ONE Access account which means your student ID number works like a library card number.
