The Library participates annually in the tax form distribution program. In years past the Library had print copies of both Maine State and federal forms. Beginning in 2011, the State of Maine stopped distributing paper state tax forms through libraries or post offices. The Library now only has print versions of federal forms. Many state and federal tax forms are also available on the Internet from the web sites listed below.
Maine Revenue Services is not distributing paper versions of the Maine State tax forms through the public libraries in 2012. If you need paper forms, please call the Maine Revenue Service at: 207.624.7894. If you do not reach a person, please leave a message stating that you wish to have a paper form mailed to you. Include your name, address, phone number and whether you wish to receive the short or long form in the message.
The Library provides free federal tax forms each year from January through the April 15th filing deadline. We carry most federal forms and instructions and also have books provided by the Internal Revenue Service which include many other forms that can be photocopied and submitted with your return. Please note that the Library does not receive any forms until January of each year.
