A new school year is about to start, and the library can provide you with access to resources that can help with schoolwork, no matter what the grade level.
With Brainfuse Help Now you can get live, on-demand homework help from expert tutors. A full-service writing lab and an integrated test-prep center are also available.
Starting in September, we'll be offering free, in-person tutoring and homework help at the Sierra View Library.
Check our website for more homework and test prep and research resources. |
