Q. How do I update my information in my library record?

To update any of the information in your library record, you can visit a library location, call us at 941-861-1110, or log into your library account online.

Because your library account is contingent upon your residency in Sarasota County, you cannot change your physical address in your online record. To change the physical address in your library account you must call 941-861-1110 or come to a Sarasota County Library in person with proof of your change of address.
