Bring Your Class to Us

Want to take a field trip to the library? Let us know and we'll schedule a tour. Call Jody Olivieri at 708-745-9275 or email us at children@homerlibrary.org.

Teacher Support

Let us help you gather resources for an upcoming lesson or assignment. Teachers who live in or work in schools that serve Homer Township may request a "Bag It" package of books and other materials to support a curriculum unit. 
To submit a "Bag It" request use our online Bag-It request form.

Proctoring

Proctoring is available by appointment. Proctored exams are free to Homer Township residents with a library card in good standing. Proctoring is currently unavailable to non-residents. To arrange this service, please fill out this form at least one week in advance and a librarian will contact you. Please contact the Help Desk at 708-745-9245 if you don't hear from a librarian within two business days. The library cannot accommodate requests for unscheduled proctoring.

Request a Librarian Visit

We're happy to come to your classroom and provide story times, book talks, share new technologies, help with research, and more! Call Heather Colby at 708-745-9245 or  Jody Olivieri at 708-745-9275 or email us at teens@homerlibrary.org or children@homerlibrary.org to request a visit or book talk.
