Massachusetts residents can obtain a library card at the Milne Public Library. However, patrons are only allowed to have one CWMARS library card (Central/Western Massachusetts Regional System – a library cooperative to which we, and many other libraries belong), so if you have a library card from another CWMARS library in Massachusetts, you can just use that. No need to obtain a second card if you’ve moved to Williamstown.

​

If you do not have a library card from any of the CWMARS libraries, all we will need in order to issue you a Milne Library card is proof of local residence. This can be a driver’s license, a utility bill or copy of a lease showing your local address, or a letter from your employer if you are part of an internship at one of our local farms.
