Need an auto title or a legal form notarized? Worthington Libraries offers free notary public service!
Appointments are required for notary services and are offered at any Worthington Libraries location. Same-day appointments may also be available.
To make an appointment, we will need your name and details about the document(s) you want notarized, including the number of signatures and witnesses required. We require an email address and phone number to confirm your appointment.
If you have notary questions, you are welcome to call, email, text or chat.
Preparing for your appointment
Please bring the following to your appointment:
- Valid form of photo identification for each person signing document(s).
- All documents requiring notarization, unsigned. Do not sign the document(s) you are having notarized until you are in the presence of the notary.
- All witnesses required. Witnesses must know you personally and must bring valid photo identification. You may not solicit library staff or patrons as witnesses.
Please print required documents before your scheduled appointment time.
Please arrive at your scheduled appointment time. We may not be able to accommodate you if you are early or late.
