All KCTCS patrons are required to have a student or faculty Photo ID card which also serves as your KCTCS library card.
Photo ID cards are made at the Downtown and Southwest Libraries and the Learning Commons on the Bullitt, Carrollton, Shelby and Technical campuses. Community patrons please ask about borrowing materials at the library’s circulation desk.
If a Jefferson Library does not have an item you require, you may be able to borrow it from another library through Interlibrary Loans.
Interlibrary Loan Request Form
Allow at least two weeks to receive the item. Depending upon availability of the item, it may take longer.
Usually there is no cost for interlibrary loans. If the item is available only from a library that charges a fee, the librarian will tell you of the cost before ordering the book.
If you lose, damage, or keep a book past the due date, you are responsible for fines or fees.
