Library Key Cards & Borrowing

Linn County Law Library materials DO NOT circulate; they must stay inside the Linn County Law Library — they cannot be checked out, taken home, or removed from the library premises. If you are a local attorney and would like to borrow library materials, please get in touch with the law library. 

Library Key Cards

Key card keys are available for $10.00 each to local attorneys. Please visit the Circulation Desk or aboedigheimer [at] co.linn.or.us (Contact Us) with any questions. Please fill out Key Card Control System Application Form (see attachment) and return it with a $10.00 check or money order made payable to the Linn County Law Library. Upon receipt, library staff will issue you a proximity card key and a receipt for your payment. Your proximity card will activate the door lock by scanning the card (either side) close to the reader that is mounted on the outside wall of the law library. Open the door when the red light turns to green (you will also hear a click and buzzing sound). For additional questions, please contact 541-924-6902.
