In October 2008, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services began administering a new set of questions for the naturalization exam.To help library users prepare for the new USCIS naturalization interview, the San Francisco Public Library developed a set of online resources including the following tools to assist our patrons with the recent exam changes:
- A video transcript introduction
- A guide to naturalization
- Detailed practice materials for the new citizenship exam
- Information about local organizations that can help with the citizenship process
- A list of English as a Second Language (ESL) providers
The resources are now available on the SFPL website at http://sfpl.org/citizenship.
Resources are currently available in 5 languages: English, Spanish, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Russian, with more languages to come in Phase 2 of the project.
