In Wimberley, there are two collection items that do not require a library card. These are paper back books and use of the patron access computers. We have bar coded "sticks" that we scan and give to a patron to hold onto when using a computer. Each computer has a bar code so we can keep track of circulation of all computer check outs as well as each computer.

If not, do you just require a sign in sheet or how to do service out-of-town patrons that are just stopping by to use the computer? Currently, Hewitt Public Library does not require a library card to use the computers. N.
