The library has responded to the growing homeschooling population by offering benefits to families who are residents of Susquehanna County and registered in the Homeschool program. With a Homeschool library card, participants receive an extended check out period and a newsletter twice during the school year. Registered families are also eligible to participate in the Homeschool programs held monthly during the school year. With notice, the outreach department will gather a collection of books according to a specific request, or conduct a tour of the library and its resources. Monthly programs, geared for elementary-aged learners, begin with a book and expand with activities. Topics crisscross the curriculum but always include fun. Click here for the current program and a list of upcoming programs. You'll find archived past programs (with pictures, overview, and handouts) here.

The Homeschool Resource Center, located downstairs in the Main library in Montrose, contains a collection of homeschooling materials available to borrow. There is a bulletin board based on the theme of the month, as well as a collection of books related to that month's program. There is also a swap shelf for families to share instructional materials.
