The library recently added Gale Courses as a free online resource that should be helpful for older homeschool students. Gale Courses offers a wide range of highly interactive, instructor led courses that you can take entirely online. As a library card holder in good standing, you are entitled to these courses at no cost. Courses run for six weeks and new sessions begin every month.
Also, take advantage of e-books and e-audiobooks on OverDrive and Libby(app version), and instant access to movies, music, and e-books on Hoopla. Our online databases can be found HERE.
Here is a helpful blog post on tips on how to get you started using the library while homeschooling elementary students.
Our Parent/Teacher Collection is located in Youth Services across from our video section. Here you'll find helpful books on school subjects, everyday parenting, and books written for homeschooling parents. All books are available to check-out for three weeks.
