Narrado por: Dave Melcher

This book is targeted at public libraries, library and information professionals, and public institutions that desire to help their patrons navigate their careers and improve their job-seeking outcomes.

Improving the job-seeking outcomes for patrons should be a top priority for public libraries especially after a pandemic, to put job seekers back into the workforce by ensuring that patrons have the capability to improve their assets in terms of knowledge, skills, and attitudes they possess in order to gain employment.

The book also supports a framework for establishing career service centers at public libraries since libraries are well positioned to make this happen. This book is of significant value to any public library with a career center to assess and evaluate its services to the community they serve.

The research described in this book was a response to the pandemic to orient community members back into the workforce, to improve the job-seeking outcomes at the libraries, and to provide a template for setting up career service centers while measuring their impacts within the community that the library serves. This book contains all the information and knowledge to fulfill those requirements and many more.
