Cleveland Public Library offers proctoring sessions at least once a month. Sessions are two hours long and allow patrons to take as many sessions as they can complete. Most proctored tests take around 10 minutes.

Patrons must pre-register for the session; there is a limit of 5 testers for each session. NorthStar requires that you provide an acceptable photo ID to be able to take a proctored test.
