Dallas Public Library Card Information
If you didn't take the opportunity to sign up for a library card during the September Library Card Sign-Up Month campaign, it's not too late. Dunbar students and families can still sign up at our neighborhood Martin Luther King Jr. Branch Library.
If you or scholars within your family do not have a library card, why not visit your local library today and complete an application.
