2026 Tax Season

The Brown County Public Library tax season has begun and we will once again be providing FREE full tax preparation to qualified Brown County residents. With the help of our volunteer trained Certified Tax Preparers and United Way of South Central Indiana, your library is here to help you complete and file your taxes.
This year, our tax preparation season runs from January 26 through March 31. Because of the high volume of returns our volunteers prepare, we are prioritizing Brown County residents this year. If you are not a Brown County resident, we encourage you to look into preparation sites in your county, or visit our Free Tax Preparation page for additional resources.
The process is simple…
- Call or stop by the Brown County Public Library main branch in Nashville, Indiana to see if you qualify. You must qualify every year, even if we prepared your taxes last year.
- Qualified participants can then stop by the Library and pick up a packet of forms. Once completed, return the packet and your tax documents to the Brown County Public Library by March 31, 2026.
- A volunteer Certified Tax Preparer will then complete your tax return and then schedule an in-person appointment where you can review and sign your tax returns.
