[Michlib-l] Library Card Applications-Different Approaches

Hello everyone!

We are considering updating our library card application forms, and I was
hoping other libraries would be so kind as to share their forms with me, if
possible. This would be helpful to determine various ways we might be able
to format our applications, while still including all of the critical parts.

We still use a physical paper copy for all our library card applications
that is kept on record and entered into our circulation program.

I am specifically interested in how other libraries handle records releases
for minors, or card applications for minors in general, as well as Internet
privileges on accounts (for example, we have separate codes in our ILS
software based on whether a patron chooses Internet access or not on their
form, in order to interact with Envisionware).

I know many libraries approach these areas differently, and I am interested
in how other institutions handle these aspects.

Thank you in advance for sharing this information!

Happy Wednesday!
