If you need tax forms or instruction booklets to complete your federal income tax return, your local library may have what you need.

Some libraries have available Publication 1132, Reproducible Federal Tax Forms for Use in Libraries, and Publication 1194, A Selection of Tax Information Publications, and a CD-ROM (Publication 1796) that contains over 600 current year tax forms, instructions and taxpayer information publications. Prior year forms, instructions, and publications are also included. For a fee, you can make copies of many of the forms. Also, some libraries have a supply of printed federal tax forms that you can pick up. If forms and publications are not available at a library, call the IRS at 1–800–829–3676 to order the forms or publications you need, or refer to Topic 155 for more options.

PLEASE!! Do not ask librarians tax law questions; they are not tax law specialists. Instead, call the IRS at 1–800–829–1040 for tax information. The library provides tax forms and other tax materials strictly on a voluntary basis as a public service.
