Need Homework/Study Help?

Every librarian has heard it. No matter how hard we try to get the word out about our resources and services, something comes up in conversation and someone says, "I didn't know the library had that!"

My next few blog posts will feature some great things I'd like people to know that we offer.

Online homework help, tutoring, and skill building:

Need homework/study help? I'd really like to encourage students of all ages to try out Brainfuse Help Now, which is offered through our Somerset County Federated Library System. Brainfuse is more than homework help. You can also build your skills by connecting with a live tutor, viewing videos, completing practice tests, and even playing study games with Flashbulb.

Live online tutoring is available every day 2:00 PM to 11:00 PM EDT

Visit our website and login with your library card. There are links to Brainfuse Help Now on our home page and our Resources page.

This resource is not just for children, either. It offers test preparation for college and graduate school entrance exams and even helps with studying for the U.S. Naturalization Test, for those seeking U.S. Citizenship.
