The article discusses the various services offered by the public library for homeschooling families in the U.S. It includes the partnership of the Cleveland Public Library (CPL) with Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) to publicize materials of interest to homeschoolers with a quarterly booklist of new acquisitions. Another is the development of the Home Learning Center in Illinois which provides homeschooling families a range of several school-related materials. In Baltimore, Maryland, homeschooling technology classes are held at the Enoch Pratt Library's Orleans Street Branch at the Pratt Center for Technology Training (PCTT).
