Sign up for a library card online

We now have online card registration available for both St. John's co-workers and the general public.  If you visit the main page of our online catalog, Coolcat, just select either 'Public' or 'St. John's Coworker' from the options on the left side of the page and fill out the required information.  Once submitted, the system will provide you with a temporary library card number so you can immediately place items on hold. 

Once registered, you will need to visit either the St. John's Medical Library or the Van K. Smith Community Health Library to complete the registration process within 30 days.  If you have any questions or concerns, give us a call.  Phone (417) 820-2795 or (417) 820-2539.
