Your library PIN (Personal Identification Number) is needed to:
Work with your account -» View
Place a hold on an item in our catalog -» View
Use select online resources from locations outside the Library
Until you change it, your PIN is the last 4 digits of your library card. PINs are four characters long, and can be changed to any combination of letters and numbers. The Jessamine County Public Library highly recommends taking the time to change it to something more secure and memorable. If you do not know or cannot remember your PIN, it can be provided to you at the Circulation Desk by showing photo identification. In the near future we should be able to reset your PIN without you having to come to the library. Please be patient with us as we explore this option for you!
