Places Out of County

Lake County Library System
Citizenship classes
~ All new learners must be enrolled in the Adult Literacy Program and meet minimum literacy requirements to be eligible to participate in the citizenship class and, as this is a Lake County Library System program, they do give priority to Lake County residents. For additional information about this program, call 352-253-6183 or email Erika Greene egreene@lakeline.lib.fl.us, Literacy Coordinator.

Orange County Library System
Each program is a 6-week series of classes. Each program participant attends class once a week for 6 weeks. Each class lasts for approximately 4 hours. The program is free for Orange County Library Cardholders. For non-cardholders living outside of the district, a temporary fee card can be purchased for $75 which can be used to register for classes at OCLS. Or you can get a reciprocal borrowing card if you show your Osceola Library Card and picture ID with current address. Then with the reciprocal card, you can sign up for the class, but you pay a $10 fee for each class. It would be $60 for the Citizenship course this way.
