Small Business Services

If you have questions about starting or growing your small business, you’ve come to the right place. We can also help you navigate the COVID-19 business resources as well as unemployment insurance issues by connecting you to solid sources.

Our Business Resource Librarian is here for you. Give Kelly a call 970-235-0049, send an email to kelly@clearviewlibrary.org, or fill out this form and give her an idea of what you need.

When the distancing rules relax a bit more, she’ll be at the Windsor Chamber of Commerce one morning a week for drop-in meetings.

Check out our business resources below – databases and important local groups who can also help you with your business.
