Tax Forms at the library
It’s that time of year again. If you come in to the library looking for federal and state tax forms, we will be happy to help you find the forms you need.
The library doesn’t receive as many paper tax forms each year as we did in the past, but the forms are available online and we can help you download and print them. There is also a place on our website, http://lmlibrary.org/eresources/tax-form-information/, that gives information about tax forms.
Please remember that the library staff cannot offer tax advice, but we can help you find tax forms that you need.
