Path to U.S. Citizenship

Public libraries can help put you on the path to citizenship! Public libraries can provide immigration study and test materials, official immigration forms and access to computers for filling out the citizenship application. Even if you don’t speak English your library can help. Many libraries offer free English classes and also have books, audio CDs, and DVDs in different languages to help you learn or improve your English on your own. Best of all, library materials and services are free. All you have to do is find your local public library and sign up for your free library card. Then ask the friendly staff how to start your journey to citizenship. Deciding to become a citizen is an important decision - your public library can help you reach your dream!
