Library Services

Ask us a question, get help with research, or book a one-on-one session with a librarian.

Check the library's collection before purchasing books for your homeschool curriculum. Ask a youth librarian for a list of our current holdings.

The Hancock County Public Library provides free test proctoring (the student is responsible for all other associated expenses, including institutional fees or postage). Exams will be proctored for residents of Hancock County by a professional librarian. 

If a condition or situation prevents you from visiting a library location, the Bookmobile will safely deliver your library materials and pick up any materials to be returned.

The library offers several premium homework help resources.

Interlibrary loan service (ILL) expands access to library materials beyond the holdings of the Hancock County Public Library. Make an ILL request online or call the Information Desk at (317) 462-5141, Ext. 240.
