Notary Public
The Crystal Lake Public Library provides the services of a Notary Public on a walk-in basis at no charge.
What to Bring
- Your completed, unsigned document(s) to be notarized
- A valid, unexpired state ID, federal ID, or other government ID with signature and photo
- If witnesses are required in addition to a Notary, please provide your own witnesses. The Library is unable to supply witnesses for you
We cannot notarize
- Documents already signed (signatures must be witnessed by the Notary Public)
- Documents that are not in English
- Documents with blank spaces other than the space for signature
- USCIS Form I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification
- Due to Illinois notarial law, we are unable to certify copies
Other Notary Options
- Mobile Notary: We are unable to go outside the Library in order to notarize a document. If you are in need of a mobile service, please consult Illinois Notary Search (1-2-3 Notary) or Notary Rotary
- App: Notarize is the first on-demand remote, electronic notary service valid in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Notarize allows for remote notarization via video call. The app is free; however, each notarial act costs $25
