Small businesses and entrepreneurs in Mount Prospect can receive free guidance from an experienced business mentor. 

The Mount Prospect Public Library partners with SCORE, a non-profit organization that is supported by the Small Business Administration. SCORE offers free, confidential mentoring by volunteers who have experience in all aspects of business.  

Mount Prospect Public Library patrons can sign up online for a one-on-one virtual session with a SCORE volunteer. Mentors can advise small businesses on topics such as product development, marketing, franchising, operations, strategy, technology, and nonprofits to name a few. Virtual appointments are available through the SCORE website.
