<div>We don't ask gender on any of our patron forms. It was very easy to remove that question. </div>

Hello,<br>
I was wondering if any library had a library card application form that <br>
included other options for gender other than male or female that you <br>
could share? We recently had a patron who doesn't identify as either and <br>
since our applications are outdated I thought it may be best to get <br>
something new.<br>
<br>
Thank you!<br>
<br>
