Bloomington Public Library offers test proctoring, subject to the availability of authorized staff and according to the following guidelines.
Test Scheduling
A minimum of 24-hour advanced notice is required for test proctoring. This service is not available on a walk-in basis, and pre-scheduling assures the availability of the test, the availability of library staff, and, when needed, the availability of a computer workstation. (If the test is to be taken online, the test taker will take the test using a public workstation in the Library’s Adult Services Department.)
To schedule test proctoring call 309.590.6168 or email reference@bloomingtonlibrary.org.
The fee for proctoring tests is $25 per testing session to be paid in cash, check, or credit card at the time of the test. There is no charge to reschedule a test prior to the testing time.
General Guidelines
- Before taking the exam, the test taker must present a valid picture ID.

- The test taker will be asked to leave personal materials and belongings (including phones) with the adult services staff for the duration of the test.
- Upon completion, the proctor will submit the test according to the instructions provided by the testing organization.
