I work for Ann Arbor District Library. Here we have the option for a K-12 student OR instructor who does not live within the district. Our resident cards expire every 2 years. Non-resident cards expire based on how long they pay for (we have the option to pay quarterly). The K-12 student/instructor cards are a 1 year expiration date. As long as the child or teacher can prove they're still affiliated with a public or charter school within our district borders (student i.d., report card, paystub, etc.), we will renew their card for another year. There's no charge for those cards.
I hope that helps. :)

Hi.
We are adjusting to charging for non-resident cards...it's very hard.
Next step, what do you do for school of choice students that use your library? Do you have an individual student card with a different amount, or the same amount, or no amount? Not all libraries are visiting patron, I try to use that as a first resort.
Thanks for all your help!!
