The act of filling out required forms to become an eligible library borrower is called

• A. Enrollment
• B. Application
• C. Membership
• D. Registration

Answer: (D)

Registration is the formal act of becoming a library borrower by completing the required forms, providing your information, and being added to the library’s records so you can borrow materials. It’s the process that creates your patron account and grants borrowing privileges, not just a claim of interest or a status you hold after signing up elsewhere.

Enrollment would be joining a program or class, which isn’t about borrowing rights. An application is submitting a request that may be reviewed, rather than the act of being entered into the library system. Membership describes the status or rights you have after you’re registered, not the process of signing up.
