Do you need Homework Help?

The Brooklyn Public Library Homework Help Program has offered homework assistance to NYC kids in all BPL locations (pre-pandemic) for 10+ years. Now this valuable program is now being offered virtually so that kids in grades K-8 and high school can get homework help from home. There is no charge for families to participate in the program.

The Virtual Homework Help program matches skilled, trained volunteers with local students who need help with school assignments. Kids in grades 1-8 (and high school upon request) can get help with math, reading, writing, and test prep, while students in grades K-8 can get help with math, reading, and writing. Upon request, assistance is offered in other subjects. Volunteers are on hand to help students one-on-one and in small groups on Zoom during after school sessions. 

You can get more info and register for homework help sessions here .

7 surprising ways the public library can help you save money

Marielle Segarra headshot

Marielle Segarra

Audrey Nguyen

A hand holds a library card, surrounded by a wide variety of services that libraries can provide.

Everyone knows you can save money on books by checking them out at the library instead of buying them. But did you know that libraries can help you save on other things too?

In some locations, you can borrow tools (saving a purchase at the hardware store), take free language classes and even get free tickets to local museums and attractions.

The resources that your library has to offer will depend on its size and funding, which comes in part from taxpayer dollars and donor funds. These perks are part of the public library's mission to serve the needs of the local community , says Joan Johnson , library director at Milwaukee Public Library. "Libraries are one of the most important parts of the social infrastructure. The possibilities for how you explore are endless."

To take advantage of these money-saving benefits, sign up for a library card, says Mychal Threets , the supervising librarian at the Fairfield Civic Center Library in Fairfield, Calif. Then check out the library website or simply walk into your local library and talk to a librarian.

Here are 7 surprising ways the library can help you save money.

1. Before you buy something, see if you can borrow it from the library

Libraries offer all kinds of items on loan. " Video games , musical instruments , board games . Some libraries have bakeware collections where you can get baking pans," says Threets.

Akhila Bhat, branch manager at Harris County Public Library in Katy, Texas, says her library system has a seed library . "Patrons can pick up seeds to start a garden and drop off seeds for others to take home and plant."

Meanwhile, libraries like the Providence Public Library in Rhode Island have tools you can check out . That includes a cordless drill, safety goggles and a laser level.

2. Reserve free tickets to local museums and attractions

In some places, you can get free or discounted tickets to local attractions in your city or town. The Nashville Public Library, for example, offers free passes to the Cheekwood Estate and Gardens (saving patrons $29 in admission fees), the Country Music Hall of Fame (saving about $28) and the National Museum of African American Music (saving about $27). And library card holders in California can gain free entry to over 200 state parks, saving patrons $20 in entry fees .

3. Print out your documents at a discount

You can use the computers to print out documents like plane tickets, concert tickets or shipping labels. There's usually a small fee, but it's often cheaper than printing at an office supply store or a shipping center, says Threets. For example, it costs 10 cents to print a page in black and white at the Brooklyn Public Library in New York, and 23 cents at Fedex.

4. Get free help with homework and standardized tests

Your library card may grant you access to free online help from expert tutors or Tutor.com , which offers live one-on-one homework help for students in K-12 and higher education. It's a sweet deal considering that hourly rates for a private tutor can range from $25-80 an hour .

If you're preparing for college, check out whether your local branch has resources for standardized tests like the SAT or ACT . Broward County Library in Florida, for example, has a free 10-hour test prep workshop for high school students that can cost hundreds of dollars elsewhere . Aspiring graduate students can find resources for exams such as the GRE, LSAT, MCAT and MAT.

Librarians can help with school projects too. If you need to research something, they can identify relevant books or order them from other branches for you. Bhat says a lot of kids come in looking for help with biographies.

5. Take free fitness, hobby and language classes

Some libraries often offer fun, free programming you'd pay money for elsewhere. Queens Public Library in New York offers workout classes ranging from yoga to tai chi to Zumba, saving patrons potentially hundreds of dollars in monthly class fees at a fitness studio.

Libraries can also help you find a new hobby. You can join a knitting club , learn photography or take a class with a naturalist . Some locations will even let patrons borrow the necessary gear. Libraries in Florida and Philadelphia , for example, have "birding backpacks" that come equipped with items for birdwatching , like binoculars and field guides to help identify local birds.

And many libraries grant patrons access to online language learning resources such as Mango Languages , a service that has courses for over 70 languages.

6. Attend free concerts and performances

Save money on live music by checking out what your local branch has to offer. The New York Public Library's performance art space, for example, has upcoming concerts featuring a choir and a quartet. And people can watch a classical guitarist or a harpist perform at different libraries in Los Angeles County.

7. Access free social services

In addition to recreation and entertainment, many libraries in the U.S. offer programs to support the community. People who need help finding a job can take computer literacy courses and get assistance with applications and interview prep . Immigrants can take English as a Second Language (ESL) classes and classes to prepare them for their U.S. citizenship exam.

Libraries also provide resources for practical matters. Around tax time , check if there are volunteer tax experts available to give you advice and help you file for free . At Threet's library, patrons can book time with a lawyer if they need legal advice. "We have volunteer lawyers who will meet with people for 15 to 20 minutes at a time on a monthly basis," he says.

Johnson says library resources like these aim to level the playing field. "The hope is that people use our services to educate and inform themselves, and gain wisdom about any topic under the sun."
