The Mayor’s Citizenship Corner is a new area within the North Miami Public Library that will provide resources to empower and support immigrants who are eligible for naturalization.

This new dedicated space at the Library will connect aspiring citizens with:
- Information and interactive tools on the citizenship application process
- Online resources and forms on site
- English and Civics Test study materials
- Answers to frequently asked questions
