New Library Card

Can I get a Library card?

If you live in Washington, Clackamas (except Johnson City), Multnomah, or Hood River counties in Oregon, or reside in the Fort Vancouver Regional Library District or the City of Camas in Washington, you are eligible for a Washington County  Cooperative Library System (WCCLS) card. Just bring in current photo ID and proof of your current address. If this is all on your driver's license, that is all you need.

What if I don't have a license?

Adventure Pass [formerly Cultural Pass to Adventure] program offers library users the opportunity to expand their experience of the library beyond the walls of our buildings into the community and beyond. Your library card is your passport to visiting different and exciting locations in Oregon.

Adventure Pass at the Sherwood Public Library

The Sherwood Public Library, along with all the Washington County Libraries, offers at least one pass to every venue in the program. Each pass provides free admission to the destination of your choice for varying numbers of guests.
