The
Peter White Public Library
offers proctoring and monitoring services for examinations.
Fees
Proctoring
services for persons registered for a Peter White Public Library card,
who are patrons in good standing, will be available for a fee of $25.00
per examination (up to three hours).
Proctoring
services for all others are available on a limited basis for a fee of
$50.00 per examination (up to three hours).
For
examinations requiring more than three hours, the examination fee will
be doubled.
Payment
by cash, check or credit card must be made at the time of application
for proctoring services (at least seven days in advance).
All
costs related to the examination such as postage for mailing the
examination, answer sheets, or photocopying, is the responsibility of
the student and must be paid prior to the return of the examination to
the testing institution.
Application
Applications
are available at the reference desk on the second floor of the Library.
Completed
applications with all required attachments, including fees, must be
received either by mail or at the reference desk at least seven days in
advance of the desired testing appointment. No appointments will be
scheduled until the application is complete.
To
ensure proctor's capacity to comply with testing requirements, a
complete application must include the testing requirements issued by
the educational institution.

Scheduling
Appointments
Proctoring
services will be scheduled by application, subject to the availability
of authorized staff, with registered patrons in good standing given
first priority.
Regular
library activities will take precedence over proctoring services. As a
result, appointments will be scheduled only during regular library
hours when there is sufficient staff. While the library staff will do
its best to meet the scheduling needs of the student, the staff will
determine date and time for appointments.
Examinations
must be scheduled such that students have sufficient time to complete
all exam requirements prior to the Library's scheduled closing time.
The library will not allow a student to complete an exam after the
Library's designated closing time.
If
a student does not appear for an appointment, library staff will not
reschedule the exam. All fees paid will be forfeited.
Examination
Rules and Restrictions
When
the Library agrees to proctor an examination, it is obligated to follow
the instructions and rules of the institution. Students must follow all
instructions of the Library staff regarding the examination.
At
this time we cannot provide proctoring for examinations that require
unusual or stringent proctoring guidelines (e.g., downloading software
onto library computers, examinations that require multiple
timed-sections, etc.); nor can we provide a private area for on-line
examinations.
To
confirm exam appointments, please contact Caroline Jordan, Reference
Librarian, at 906-226-4311.
