The PLAC program allows an individual to purchase a card which allows them to borrow materials directly from any public library in Indiana. The Public Library Access Card (PLAC) is the name for the statewide library card enacted by the Indiana General Assembly in 1993 ( Indiana Code 4-23-7.1-5.1). The non-resident fee is equal to the taxpayers’ current fee. You no longer need to have 2 separate library cards for the Roachdale Public Library & Putnam County Library – obtain your library card from your home library and use it at either location! Proof of residence (with a current address) is required through any of the following: valid Indiana driver’s license, valid Indiana State ID, valid voter registration card, valid current government issued ID(military ID, passport), recent bank statement, recent utility bill, or tax receipt. Staff of North Putnam School Corporation who live outside of Putnam County are still eligible to receive an outreach card through the Roachdale Public Library. The Putnam County Library is now an Evergreen Library as well! If you live in Putnam County, but outside of Franklin Township, you should obtain your library card from the Putnam County Library in Greencastle.

Residents of Franklin Township should obtain their library card from Roachdale Public Library. With Evergreen Indiana you can: access and borrow from over 100 other libraries on-line, place holds from your account on-line, renew items yourself on-line, receive holds and notifications through email.
