Homework help, paper feedback and resume assistance are at community members’ fingertips thanks to Brainfuse, a new on-demand eLearning resource launched by the Richmond Public Library for people of all ages.
As part of the Brainfuse offering, “HelpNow” gives students with a Richmond Public Library card live access for homework help. According to the library, students indicate their grade level and subject area and then can access a live tutoring session from any computer between 1-10 p.m. daily.
Skill building and test preparation where the student and tutor can access quiz questions are also available via HelpNow. The live sessions are saved, so they can be replayed and shared with others by email. To use HelpNow, or to get a library card, visit
