Oswego Public Library

The United Way and the School of Business at SUNY Oswego are again providing free income tax preparation help, just not at the library.  The student volunteers are certified by the IRS and can file returns electronically.  Students from the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program and volunteers from RSVP will offer free tax preparation at the following Oswego locations:

Over 300 people attended mini golf at the library and we raised over $2,700 for the Children's Room!

The Oswego Public Library will be closed Monday in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr.  However, fun is brewing for that day as everyone is invited to play miniature golf INSIDE the library!

The Gale Testing and Education Reference Center database replaces Learning Express, which is no longer available. The resources available at the Gale database are similar to those at Learning Express, but the interface is a bit more intuitive and easy to use. The Testing and Education Reference Center will use the library card number and PIN like the other Gale databases and not require establishing a special account.  Enter your info in the top right and then scroll down or jump to Careers & Education.
