The <br />Downtown Library is one of 17 locations in Lane County where this help is available, free of charge. <br /> <br />Drop-in appointments at the Downtown Library are on Fridays, from 10:00 - 4:00, and Saturdays, from 10:00 - 3:00 <br />through Saturday, April 10. Appointments are held on a first-come, first-served basis in the Singer Room on the 2nd floor. <br />Taxpayers need to bring last year's tax return and current year's records. A Spanish-speaking volunteer will usually be <br />available on Saturdays. <br /> <br />For do-it-yourself tax-preparers, all three Library locations stock IRS forms. At the Downtown Library, they are located on <br />the counter behind the second floor Reference Desk. Intemet-access computers at any Library location can also be used <br />to view IRS forms and publications (www.irs.gov). <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 1 <br />March 17, 2004 <br /> <br /> <br />
