The library has several notaries public on staff who are available to notarize documents at no cost to patrons. We typically have at least one notary scheduled to work during all hours that the main library is open. Drop-ins are welcome. However, staff absences are always possible, so if your need is urgent, you may wish to call ahead to make a notary appointment.

Please be aware that notaries are not qualified to give legal advice, and may refuse to notarize a document if the notary has reason to believe that the document is illegal, incomplete, or fraudulent, if one or more of the signers lacks appropriate identification, or if one or more of the signers appears coerced or unable to understand the transaction.

All parties signing a document should bring their current proof of identification. Do not sign any parts of the document before meeting with the notary.

The library does not provide extra witnesses for signing documents. If witnesses are required, you must bring them to the appointment.
