LIBRARIES-NONRESIDENTS-FEES

Complete·8/1/25

Illinois HB0042 allows nonresidents to pay library fees quarterly or biannually and establishes fees for nonresident library card use.

HB0042 amends the Illinois Local Library Act and the Public Library District Act of 1991. It allows library boards to permit nonresidents to pay fees quarterly or biannually if allowed by board regulations. Nonresidents must apply for a library card at the nearest public library. The board may charge a fee for nonresident library use, set at least equal to the cost paid by residents, with the cost determined by the Illinois State Library.
