Apply by October: Special opportunity for Public Service Loan Forgiveness

ALA encourages library workers with federal student loans to review their eligibility under the U.S. Department of Education’s Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program. Library workers in public and nonprofit institutions—including most academic libraries—may be eligible to have their federal student debt balance forgiven. A special opportunity with expanded eligibility for forgiveness is available until October 31, 2022.
