Hi Margaret, We don't do that but we do put the ID number in the patron's record and that of their children. Thanks, Jaema ----- Original Message ----- From: "Margaret Bentley" <margaret.bentley@sdl.lib.mi.us> To: "michlib-l@lists.mcls.org" <michlib-l@mail.mcls.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2016 2:32:19 PM Subject: [Michlib-l] Library Cards We are looking at new circulation systems and are considering reissuing library cards to all patrons. Does anyone use driver's license/state ID numbers or the actual driver's license/state ID in place of an actual library card? Any potential problems going this direction? We realize some accommodation will need to be made for children or anyone without a state issued ID. If there is interest, I'm willing to post results to the list. -- Margaret Bentley Adult Services Librarian Shiawassee District Library--Owosso 502 W.
